There are also people who says that the Shark Jumping went as far back as 2004-2005. So the thing is, there probably was a shark jump, but no one can decide '''when''' it happened.

* JumpingTheShark: This is a dodgy subject. Many people say that the series jumped it after 2009-2010's DoingInTheWizard, some people however say it happened somewhere 2007-2008 while others say it happened after the revelation of there being more than one Makuta. There are also people who says that the Shark Jumping went as far back as 2004-2005. So the thing is, there probably was a shark jump, but no one can decide '''when''' it happened.
