For many people swimming with sharks with no safety net is the stuff of nightmares.
But for Lesley Rochat - known as the 'shark warrior' - that is the problem. She is trying to convince people that the creatures are not the man-eating monsters depicted in Jaws and are crucial to the health of the world's oceans.
These incredible shots show the moment the South African free diver swam with tiger sharks, considered one of the most deadly species in the world.
Dressed only in a bikini, Rochat said she wanted to make herself as vulnerable as possible to the shark.
She hopes that by swimming with the creatures she can show they are not as dangerous as people think.
