Giant Shark Attacks Discovery HQ
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Well, one of the most wonderful times for me anyhow. Cable’s longest running event, Shark Week, is right around the corner. Celebrating its 23rd anniversary, the weeklong event kicks off on Sunday, August 1 – the same day Christiane Amanpour takes the reins of ABC’s “This Week.”
To celebrate, Discovery Channel has installed “Chompie,” a giant 446 foot shark on their headquarters in Silver Spring, MD.
Fun facts about Chompie after the jump.
The shark is 446 feet long from the tip of its nose to the back of its tail, 113 feet tall from its belly to its dorsal fin, and 200 feet wide from tip to tip of the side fins.
