Hmm.. when the shark swims by in the background.. Something doesn't look right. The shape is all wrong. The tail fluke is horizontal, like a dolphin. Sharks are vertical. Hmmm...
 
I haven't seen or heard anything in this to convince me overtly that It has been faked. With kite surfing imagery we normally have some of the advanced video guys evaluate it Frame by frame. I've already done that grabbing the stills but they have means with editing software And experience for that matter that I don't have. How about it?

I'm not inclined to think the imagery is fake; it's more a matter of the description of what is happening not matching what you see in the video. I see a modest sized shark of indeterminate species (maybe a juvenile sand tiger?) zip in and out of the frame but it doesn't appear to make contact with either diver. My impression is that someone (perhaps the divers seen in the video, perhaps not) decided to have a little fun with the description; perhaps, as another poster has suggested, this was a "let's get on TV" stunt.
