Was the Great White jumping out of the water chasing a fake seal that they tow behind a boat?
Nah, it was an actual seal. All the footage on Planet Earth is animals in their natural habitats without human involvement. They film alot of it with steady cams from choppers.

It was badass. I watched it when it came on at midnight. I especially enjoyed watching the Snow Leopard hunt.

I watched half of the ocean one On Demand last night, did anyone else see the part with the dolphins herding the mackerel close to the surface so they could get to them easier?
It was amazing because the dolphins were able to work just like sheep dogs or something to herd this whole school of fish really close together.
In the meantime these sea-birds would dive about 60 feet under the water to pick off the fish too.
The whole thing was like some kind of organized chaos, it was really fascinating to see.
