Scott Cam comes from a long line of fishermen, and a family who grew up loving the beach. So, he's been taught about the dangers of sharks from a young age.

Recently retired from professional swimming, Ariarne still holds several world records and was also awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia.

While at home in the pool, the unknown beneath the ocean's surface paralyses her in fear.

Ariarne hopes to dig deep to get herself in the ocean. She must leverage the mental strength that's made her champion to confront a terror that feels far worse than any Olympic final!
