Used to take a pair of swimming goggles out surfing small days in Hawaii, until I saw a massive shark...
Stopped taking the goggles after that
In nearly 30 years of surfing, been 'nudged' once, chased in a couple of times and circled a few more.
Still reckon it's more dangerous to drive a car (or walk through a cane field in Oz)

it surprises me there are not more surfers taken
black body suits,flippers,and they bob up and down like seals
i was working with a surveyor up in nth qld and stood on
a taipan.as luck had it i stood on the neck and he wrapped his body around my leg.
i was used to snakes but this bloke put the wind up me.ive seen a couple of blokes that have been bitten.
still dont know if there is anti-venom for tiapans

And another one was taken today....An 11yr old kid was out on his body board with his mates about 100m off shore when he was attacked and killed. The shark took both his legs. This one happened about 300 miles Nth of Sydney near Coffs Harbour

This was in the N.Y. Daily News today but they wrote it up as a 19 yr old.

Very sad; my sympathy for his friends and family. We get lots of shark bites here, but they're not "shark attacks".

Never said it was.They're sad faces Wal....Initial radio reports gave his age as 11yrs but was later corrected to 19yrs. Turned out to be a 3m Tiger Shark......Very rare to hear of a Tiger be blamed for an attack in Aust waters. They normally put them down to Bull Sharks That far Nth
