This is a very harmless educational show. however, there are some re-enactments of people getting killed by man eating fish. thats what puts this show on the iffy scale. if your child would watch this you should fast foward the re-enactments. also, the fish are real, not CGI monsters. your child would maybe get scared that there are bigger fish in the ocean.

Educational but dramatic
The dramatinzation of the reanactment of the story of a fish attacking a human looks violent with the blood everywhere but its appropriate if your older so you can understand where amazing fish live learn facts and storys of different cultures and/or fish in different areas.The guy who catched the fish shows a good role model like if you want to be a fishing champ or fish catcher someday.But I wouldnt show it to younger viewers since it might scare them to explore and/or go into water.

Jeremy Wade catches the "one that got away"....
I love this show because at the end there is always confirmation of the behemoth fish's existence. The stories and encounters are intriguing, the fishing scenes when you can hear the slack in the line being pulled are exciting, and the brute size of the monsters he catches is mind-blowing!!! Look forward to the new seasons every April!

This is just disgusting and will give you nightmares!
Ewwww! Are people insane? This is just disgusting! And you call this educational? What were you THINKING?!?!? Jeremy is an example of a brave guy, but the show itself is DISGUSTING! I mean, it'll haunt your dreams! I had a nightmare from this show of being killed by evil, vicious fish! I mean, who wants to see kids who are like, 6, Getting torn to bits by fish?!?!? This is all Animal Planet cares about now, they treat this show like a king. If you want a good show from AP, I suggest "Too Cute" or "Big Cat Diary"! I mean, those shows are a trillion times better then this! Sure, Big Cat Diary shows a bunch of animals eating and killing others, but it's not over-the-top! And, Too Cute, I recommend that show if ANY show on AP you were to watch! Too Cute has no violence. Too Cute is what you call educational. And, if you want to see poor kids getting torn to bits, then this is the place to go.

facinating fish
very good show one of my favourites but the accounts of attacks and when he talks to people about attacks are upsettling and horrific such as a grandfather lifting his grandsons bones after being eaten by pirahnas. and their are much worse!
