Hundreds of turtles
die every day
:00:23
in this hot desert of sand.
:00:26
The barrets nest inside
the big skeletons.
:00:30
The little ones look for
some meat among the bones.
:00:55
The natives of the Malay
islands bury their dead
:00:58
in this immense
underwater cemetery.
:01:01
Their religion teaches
that the sea washes the bodies
:01:05
and frees them from sin.
:01:08
Only during the day are these
waters empty and still.
:01:12
At night, the sharks
rush in to perpetrate
:01:17
their devastating action.
:01:19
They only leave the bones,
which the friends
:01:22
and families of the dead
arrange, with macabre pity,
:01:25
among the bizarre
coral branches.
:01:29
ln these waters, the sharks
of the Malay coast learned
:01:32
how to feed on human flesh
:01:35
and become man eaters.
