Tuna Wranglers

It takes a certain kind of person to willingly jump into a tuna pen 120 miles offshore, wrestle deadly sharks out with their bare hands and live to tell the tale - but for South Australia's tuna fishermen, it's all in a day's work. The mighty Southern Ocean has long been a shipping graveyard, with monstrous waves powering across the remote seascape. But each year, the fishermen take up a unique challenge: To spend two months rounding up, caging and dragging home millions of dollars worth of live southern bluefin tuna to fatten up, and sell to the lucrative Japanese market. From the makers of 'Deadliest Catch'.
