Mike starts off Shark Week by going to South Africa to look at some great white sharks inside a shark cage. He then heads to a shark research lab and gets a deeper understanding about shark anatomy as he conducts an autopsy of a dead tiger shark. Mike then works with some shark researchers and helps electronically tag them and collect shark DNA. Next he goes to the island of Bimini in the Bahamas and helps test a new shark repellent, which is made from the smell of dead sharks. Finally, Mike hangs out with a professional shark spotter off the coast of South Africa who watches the ocean to protect beachgoers.moreless

    I think it was a great idea for them to have Mike not only host shark week but put it into Dirty Jobs. My daughter just loved this episode and the next because she loves animals and she got to learn more about sharks that wasn't to much above her head. It gives kids a great realistic fun learn time. Of course Mike being himself makes it funny too. Granted the dirtiest job was the disection of the shark, but I like Mike's face when he was making the shark bait. Priceless! I hope they bring Mike back next year for shark week, I know I will watch it if they do.moreless
