Andy continued: “I am always looking to find ways to film marine life in my low budget way. “I will be trying again but trying to stop the camera bouncing as the kayak moves in the waves, I think my chances of seeing another are pretty low.’ Andy routinely posts his footage on Crab.e.cam on Facebook and YouTube and describes his highlights as “little glimpses into South Australian marine life” Read More on The Sun NUMBER CRUNCHER Martin Lewis reveals way to calculate running cost of household appliances Dye debate My daughter’s been asking to dye her hair - I gave in but trolls slammed me It comes after a chilling video showed a massive shark stalking two paddleboarders in a rare encounter.
