Major Loss to Underwater film world

Post by Bric Martin »

RIP Mike DeGruy. Along with Wes Skyles these are two major losses in a pretty short period.

Bad news indeed.
I met Mike 33 years ago at Enewetak Atoll in the Marshall Islands.
When I took his picture, he was showing us his movie he too of the Gray Reef shark
warning posture before they attempt attack. One of the sharks did bite him...
He sure came a long way from those days .
