Is it time to officially declare Florida the bravest state in America?

First,  they have videos of people calmly recording giant alligators and now we see a couple of divers just peacefully recording a huge whale shark off the coast of West Palm Beach, Florida.

It's rare to see a whale shark this close to the shore, so it's understandable that these two divers were in awe but remember to always be safe when dealing with wild animals.
