We have entered day 3 of Shark Week 2013 and Discovery Channel is giving viewers another day jam packed with sharks before premiering four new Shark Week specials beginning at 8pm.

Tonight at 8PM ET tune into the Discovery Channel for "Return of Jaws: Sharktweeto." This special will be a rebroadcast from the previous night with special bonus clips and behind the scenes footage. It will also feature a segment of live tweets and question from Shark Week fans.

Following "Return of Jaws: Sharktweeto" at 9PM will be "I Escaped Jaws." This 60-miniute special will show actual footage of shark attacks, while hearing the amazing story of those who have survived an encounter with a shark.

At 10PM Discovery Channel will air "Spawn of Jaws." In this feature "Fast and Furious" star Paul Walker will join up with scientist Michael Domeier. Together the pair will attempt to uncover one of the most sought after sightings in the shark world, locating a Great White's birthing place. No one has ever witnessed a Great White shark giving birth, will Domeier and Walker be the firsts?

At 11PM an all new "Shark After Dark LIVE" with host Josh Wolf will have some extra special sharkey guests. From "Sharknado" Tara Reid will join Josh and hopefully put the rumors surrounding her part in the sequel to rest.
