Don’t Kiss Sharks, They’re Really Not That in to You

Seriously, don’t do it! You’ll find out why after this video (as if you didn’t already know), but be warned some of it’s very graphic.

Dave Marcel is an experienced deep-sea diver and shark lover. On routine diving tours, he likes to attract the generally-docile nurse shark over, and invites people to give them hugs and kisses. Aww. Only this time he went for the lips. And then the obvious happens.

Obvious indeed.

California Surfer Recalls Shark Attack

Megan Halavais, 20, was attacked by a shark while paddling into the water off Salmon Creek Beach in Sonoma Counry in Northern California. Megan, an experienced surfer, was attacked from behind and escaped the jaws of a 16-foot shark after she hit the shark on its tail

“It was weird. I was sitting out there thinking, ‘Wow, this feels shark-y to me,’” Megan Halavais, 20, said Thursday. “It was straight out of ‘Jaws.’”

“A 16-foot shark is a big shark. It’s not just 16 feet in length. It’s big. I couldn’t fit my arms around its tail. Its fin, its main dorsal fin, was like taller than me,” Halavais recounted for reporters at Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital as she sat in a wheelchair, her bandaged leg extended in front of her.

The attacked happened on Wednesday and by Thursday Megan was already in good spirits, with a shark bite that streched from her thigh to her calf. She is listed in good condition. Police believe the shark was probably a great white, possibly the same shark in one or more attacks in recent years, the beach is now closed and surfers in nearby locations have been warned.

Wow, I thought that shark caught in New Zealand was big & now I hear about a girl who escapes being eaten by an even bigger one.
