I remember watching his documentaries as a child, and I thought I would get a kick out of it to see them now.

To say I was kinda surprised to see dynamite used for a fish census, the killing of a baby whale (granted, to put it out of it's misery) and the needless slaughter of countless Oceanic White tips (my favorite sharks) as a gross understatement.

But hey, it was a different time, think about all the good that came out of that documentary and other aspects of Cousteau's work.
