He chose to go surfing - and was very unlucky.

Humpback whales are migrating up the E and W coasts of Australia at the moment. GW 's can be out looking for calves.


I assume that was just a poor attempt at being funny, no-one could really be that ignorant.

I have to agree, it's not like the shark climbed through old mate's window with a balaclava and a sawn off shotgun shouting "Stand and delliver!! Your money or your wife!!" or anything.

He went swimming/surfing in the shark's habitat, he no doubt knew the risks involved.

salamander of a way to die, but it isnt the shark's fault, and killing every GW they find for the next few weeks in the area isnt going to prevent attacks happening in the future.

PS Lizking....thems some BIG waves in the background there mate, musta been awesome riding them eh?;)

To really look cool though, you need a bevy of bikini clad beauties draping themselves about your person....you know, like those Boris Valerjo (?)  paintings with the warrior dudes.

For the benefit of dumb foreigners.....where is this 'third coast'?
Gulf of Mexico?
