I can't agree more, the last scene with the lady diver and the shark was epic. Great work ....great content ! KUDOS

[@yusefcabrera]

Watching this in 2023. Amazing work, guys! Such a beautiful animal..

[@BehindtheMask]

We assume you are talking about the tresher? Yes indeed!

[@HavikenHayes]

I'm always left with the sensation of wanting to quit my job & run away to an exotic dive location forever after watching one of your videos. What sort of magic is this that invokes such an emotional response? What ever it is, keep up the good work. You're doing it right.

[@gibo588]

The best Malapascua KZbin I have ever seen.

[@BehindtheMask]

Thanks Gilbert! We appreciate your feedback.

[@BehindtheMask]

Thanks :-)

[@cbuanimax]

I jjust came across this video and it awed me how the production was done, the cinematic shots, the story and how the video is presented. Malapascua is being showcased again but this time in a more detailed and cinematically presented. Kudos to Behind the Mask and all applause to the "Angel on the Deep" short film.
