JAWS the shark named Bruce.

The shark from finding nemo was also named Bruce

...which is also a Great White. Mind you, absolutely coincidental though. :lol

Reviving this thread thinking starting a new one would take away from this one. Found some photos I took when very very young while on the tram ride. Taken with a trusty 110 Kodak, I believe. Bruce from Jaws 2, and looks like the tour Bruce, guessing second generation based on the gigantic teeth. Hope you enjoy.

I caught something on t,v a week ago saying he was being installing into a new museum - finally safe and sound

I assumed they spent four years restoring it? It looks way to good for it's age... I think he's had some work done.

Glad they have it but not really digging the way they are displaying him.

At Universal you could walk right up to him and see just how friggin huge he was!!

Found this memory. Myself and my younger brother, the man looking upwards walked in front of us and my mom took the picture anyway.
