Dancing with tiger sharks

The 38-year-old model has become the first person in the world to perform a deadly dance underwater next to tiger sharks. Hannah Fraser descended to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean in the Bahamas to swim alongside dangerous predators in protest against the hunt for endangered tiger sharks. More than 100 million sharks are killed by humans every year, and about 15 people around the world die from shark encounters.
