Brendan Talwar and Chris Malinowski from La Jolla participated in Netflix's 'All the Sharks,' competing alongside four teams around the world. Teams earned points for rare shark photos, diverse species captured, and total photos taken. The Shark Docs led early and maintained their lead through six episodes, ultimately winning the trophy and $50,000 for nonprofits they represented. Talwar expressed that the experience had highs and lows, including exhaustion but also fulfilling childhood dreams. He emphasized the importance of winning for the nonprofits, stating that it would significantly benefit them.
The team, known as the Shark Docs, outlasted the three other teams across six episodes to take home the shark-shaped trophy and $50,000 for nonprofits.
The rarer the shark, the higher the point value. Points also were awarded based on the number of photos and the number of diverse species captured.
We’re really excited to bring the money to them more than anything, Talwar said. I remember saying early in the season that we didn’t have to win, I just didn’t want us to lose.
The experience did a lot for Talwar, too, including fulfilling a childhood wish. During one of the episodes at Darwin's Arch in the Galapagos Islands, a group of orcas swam around the Shark Docs while they were on a dive.
