Here's my own personal shark story.
No body was harmed in this story, but my friends and I were a surprised to learn about it.
1992 I was visiting a friend on the island of Kawaii for St. Patricks day.
I didn't plan for the holiday, just that their condo time share happened to coincide with it.
While we were there, some of us decided to head up to the north shore, near the Napali coast. They filmed the first Jurassic Park movie there.
We headed to the Barking Sands beach and were surprised to find the beach practically devoid of any other beach goers.
Oh well, that just means no crowds, kids, or unwanted noise.
We swim, relax, and head back home. While at the condo, one of my friends happens to be reading USA TODAY, and on the page that gives little quips of news around the country there was a piece about Hawaii, the islan of Kawaii to be exact, and it involved a shark attack THE DAY BEFORE.
Fortunately for us, we didn't venture out past the breakers that line the shore about 50 yards from shore. That's where the attack took place.
