A shark with a laser attached to its fin swims towards the camera. A company called Wicked Lasers promised it would fulfil the Austin Powers character Dr Evil’s request for “sharks with frickin’ laser beams attached” if it got 2,000 Facebook ‘Likes’. The company hired marine biologist Luke Tipple to carry out the task. These images, taken off the coast of the Bahamas at the end of April, show the results of his work. They show a lemon shark with a S3 Krypton green laser fitted to its fin using a non-invasive clamp applied by a diver. Picture: Wicked Lasers / Rex Features

Shark High Five by Paul Spielvogel.
It’s not everyday that we see a smiling shark give a scuba diver a high-five. Eli Martinez, editor of Shark Diver Magazine, was diving in the Caribbean Sea, off the Bahamas coast, when a laid-back lemon shark swam straight towards him before turning at the last second with her fin outstretched, connecting with his hand.
“At first she was swimming straight towards me, but I didn’t expect her to turn at the last moment,” said Martinez.“She tapped my palm with her fin like we were high-fiving. Luckily my friend who owns an underwater camera captured it all on film for me to show the grand kids.”
