Remember you shouldn’t blame the sharks, you’d probably be aggressive too if someone jumped into your house with just speedo’s on!

Ah I too used to console myself with the odds of a lightning strike vs shark attack, that was until two years ago (30 yrs of surfing) when a 5-6 meter white pointer came up right next to me on a reef break about two hundred very long slow meters off shore. It had a dorsal fin the size of a 4wd tire and swam under and around me. Thank God it didn’t fancy fillet,o white guy none the less scared the crap out of me and now I see every bloody shadow four a quarter mile square.

Younsuddenly feel very small and helpless truth is you have one life look after it.

“…more likely to be killed in an automobile accident…”
I at least feel I have some control when in a car and can avoid an accident if necessary therefore driving doesn’t scare me, but what the heck can I do if a shark wants to attack me?
Helplessness is a rotten feeling.

If you have not been stalked by a shark i can tell you that you dont know the true meaning of fear yet…. I am from South Africa and have had a few brushes with quite a variety of sharks whilst out surfing, GW’s Tigers, Bulls, and reef sharks etc. All i can say is they come out of f@cking nowhere and its damn scary…it has actually ruined my surfing experience for me these days because i know that they are always around – just not always looking for a meal.

Man has reduced the sharks food source by over fishing it is no wonder then why attacks are up, the sharks are hungry and it is also why they must be fished as to keep things in balance.
