Celebrating 30 years of the longest running cable TV event in history, Shark Week is coming back to satisfy our obsession with everything shark-related. People all over the world tune in to Shark Week to witness mind blowing stunts that are unparalleled elsewhere. This year, watch out as MMA champion Ronda Rousey and legendary Bear Grylls battle it out with the world’s deadliest predators.
In Uncaged: Shark vs Ronda Rousey, Olympian, MMA champion and current WWE Superstar Ronda Rousey is trained by shark conservationist and shark attack survivor, Paul de Gelder, to face her fiercest opponent yet: the fastest, bitiest shark in the world, and the ultimate fighter of the sea, the Mako shark. First, Rousey, in a cage, dives into the ring with several lightweight shark species in the waters off Fiji and then moves onto the main event in New Zealand where she’ll “free dive uncaged” with the heavyweight Mako shark. Ronda is out to prove that harnessing the fighting spirit can let anyone confront their greatest fears and be victorious in the face of those doubts.
Back on Discovery for the 30th anniversary of Shark Week, Bear Grylls has survived the most extreme environments, from the frozen peaks of Everest to blazing sands of the Sahara Desert, but what will happen when he goes head to head with sharks when they have the home field advantage? It will be his greatest test of wits and skill as the ultimate survivor faces off with the ocean’s apex predator: Bear versus Shark.
