Swimmer Killed By Shark
 

Looks like it really is "Shark Week"

Central Cali

Law of Nature at work again.

unfortunate for her.. but what the fuck was she thinking dressing in a full wet suit with fins and swimming with seals....doh!

:(

avila beach sucks anyways, she should of known better

any article when a shark is killed by human ?!

I just had fish and chips, you think it was shark I was eating?

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Couldn't be the same one:Buck: :Buck:

doubt it, its illegal

anatomy of a shark bite kicked ass.

no it's not. People eat shark meat daily.

is that the one where they recreated a shark out of metal and showed the effect of the shark biting into meat?

Yes, and that recreation was based on the actual shark attacks w/ the victims watching.

that sucks :(

I would NEVER go swimming in Cental California w/ a full wetsuit on.

I for one live near the Florida coastline and NO WAY will I ever go into the ocean/beach.

WIth what we pull out of the water [sharks, rays, barracuda etc], you could not get me on a jetski in the ocean and I don't care what coastline we are talking.

Under the title

Self Inflicted-

or

Thinning the Herd


Q- What do big scary sharks eat off the coast of California?

A- Seals

If sharks eat seals, what would you think a rational thinking person would want to stay away from while in the water?


Why not go into a tiger pen with a porterhouse aorund your neck?

Because you didn't survive your last act of utter stupidity.

Article is probably long lost, but I have a huge scar in my foot from my scuba diving days.

Partner and I were in the Australia and spearfishing. Pretty stupid because it is shark waters, but we didn't see any. Duh...we were stoned and having fun fishing away with bloody fish in nets on our sides...I was attacked, luckily by a 4ft baby.

Bit through my flipper and foot and shaked me like a rag doll. My diving partner jumped on him and stabbed the hell out of him until he hit the eye and killed him, then pryed me loose so we could get the fuck out of there

30 years later I still think about that scar and think about my pal Dave, my old Hawaii and Australia surfing and diving partner for saving my life.

When you see a shark get the fuck out of the water fool!

not in cali, and if they are, it doesnt make it legal

the thing to know about sharks is, if you're out in the water and you see a shark, you do NOT need to outswim the shark. You only need to outswim the guy next to you.

bullshit. Go to any Safeway store and you can buy shark till your wallet is empty.

It's illegal to trophy hunt great whites. That's it.

hmmm, interesting... we were told it was illegal by some guys in one of those partrol boats, said they were protected
i guess you just cant go finning
thanks for clearing that up

Yep, shark sushi is quite common around these parts. It's not cheap, and it's not very good (imo) but it's dfinitely legal.

:1orglaugh

just when you thought it was safe

I had a shark bump my leg once. It left a nice bruse, but at least it left my leg. I don't what I hate worse, sharks or snakes?

Just because you can buy it at Safeway doesn't mean it came out of local waters...

This is a great line:
"Nielsen said swimmers should avoid waters where there are signs that wildlife are feeding. "

Poppy--you ever see a sign before you paddle out to a break that said..."warning, sharks feeding here"???

:-))

that sucks

I think they mean 'signs' as in, 'indications'.... not a literal sign.

but what about if a certain person is killed by a shark....is it legal?

pics?

Ah...you mean like "blood in the water" kinda sign..yeah, that makes sense to me...
