not buying into it anymore
it's mind control......

sharks are good.......
for the health of all the fish in the sea
same as wolves are..... on Land

but they dramatize it big time...
same as Vampires on TV

they should have Humbolt squid week
they are more like ALIENS - heh- heh

Hey, who was the numbnuts I saw the other night petting tiger sharks on the nose...

Prime candidate for the Darwin Award, right alongside the kid in Florida who lost his leg after fishing in the surf and chumming all around himself...and says he plans to do it again...

I guess you really can't fix stupid...

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

I don't know how many times the shows reminded us that sharks can attack in very little water. I might wade in, in the future, but I think swimming at night will now be a rememberance of my youth.
I thought the episodes with the survival guy were sort of sensationialized, but the history and survivor stories were pretty sobering. Seems like most of the time it's a "when you least expect it" attack.
