brynne Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=tmdAy1UQY28 Did this grandpa miss the deluge of news reports about shark bites this year? Watch 62-year-old Welshman Paul Marshallsea wrestle a 6-foot shark back out to sea with his bare hands when the saw-toothed creature came terrifyingly close to some kids playing at Bulcock Beach in Australia. The vacationer-turned-hero says, "My instincts took over and I just grabbed the shark by the tail ... He turned on me and just missed me with a bite. It nearly took my leg off in a split second; it was that quick." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

=FA=Google Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 This shows us that humans and 'dangerous' animals can live together, And that killing ALWAYS should be the last option.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeetBix KiD Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I hate they kill sharks after a person has been killed by one. I live in South Australia. Only part of Australia that gets great white. We go and invade their homes by swimming in the sea. Natural instinct for them is to protect or feed. When they attack people they don't do it for a bit of fun. Most people who get attacked don't want the shark to be destroyed... It's the government that sadly decides this. On a side note MaKy was swimming near a reef as a teen and thought he saw a shark under him..... Turned out to be a scoober diver... I bet he swam faster than Michael phelps that day 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
