LOL Hellrider! I guess that movies scared an entire generation for life! HA!!
Bud, I've petted stingrays before, but it was at the Ripley's Aquarium in Gatlinburg, TN. They feel really cool. Kind of slimy but with texture too. I can see what you mean
about the way they eat as that is the way it looked while the diver was feeding them. Baby sharks in the tank too, only we were not allowed to pet them, nor did I have
the desire to. Lucy's teeth are enough for me. lol [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by hellrider 31038 from Monday, March 01, 2010 3:01:45 PM)

Just stingrays thank goodness. That spot was pretty cool. It was a few miles off shore on a sand bar.
The water was only chest high. We fed them squid by hand. When they eat it's like a vacuum(literally).
When I first jumped in the water one stuck to my chest trying to feed. It scared the crap out of me. I was
taking steps backward and trying to (gently)pry it loose. Finally it let go. Once you got used to them
brushing up against your legs it was a pretty awesome experience. I don't know if it's true or not but they
tell you that's the only place in the world where you can get in the water and interact with stingrays like that.
