Holy Crap

[Salty]

Well this had my heart pumping this morning, at around 8 AM my mum charges into to my room to make sure i'm still in bed. Luckily I was out late at the gf's house and turned off my alarm this morning instead of waking up and going for my sat morning run along the beach and then a surf or a swim. Turns out there is a white pointer 30m off shore at the beach I swim at and a man is missing (presumably taken by the shark). There's planes all around the coast and cops telling people to get off the beach, it's rather intense.

I guess the moral of the story is that sometimes it's good to sleep in.

Say a silent thank you, so that you remain in divine timing andcontinue to be looked after.

Pleased it wasnt you mate, the fukker was obviously hungry.

We got one this morning but only 2 feet ,teaching a mate of mine the ins and outs well away from the crowds.

Would have been great to swim along a shark...
You really missed out...

Man missing after shark attack - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

The surf beach is about a 5 min drive south of here, and that's one of the best places to go snorkelling and crabbing in the bay. He must have just been off the shelf as it drops off from 1-2m deep to about 5 or 6m. I think i'm going to change where I swim for a while

But yeah missed out big time I think , I've been told the bastard was larger than some of the search boats, so he's no baby.

Dreadful story Salty man. It seems amplified because of the time of year.

My cousin has just relocated to Aus.
I think I'll visit next May.
