I’ve twice been to SA and booked on the shark cage dive. Both times it got cancelled due weather conditions. First time I was gutted but the 2nd time I was quite relived as there had recently been a video of a shark attacking a cage and very nearly killing someone.

Nope, but apparently the Great Whites have largely disappeared from South African waters. I read a few articles about it, noone really knows why.

They all moved here to Western Australia.

I was pretty scared of going in the ocean when I first moved here from Manchester but probably go surfing twice a week now and its just an accepted risk. I'm honestly more scared of the physco magpies.

Breaking news. The shark has been captured and interviewed. Public sympathy is growing and in a magnificent gesture Manchester United have invited it to attend their next home game. ‘ It’s what we do and no big deal’ a representative from Scum PR said at a press conference.

In support of PR I assume they´ll be flying the shark in on their global sponsor Aeroflot

A friend of mine visited SA and booked himself on a cage shark dive
His story is they set off on this rusty old boat out into the bay and on this particular day there was quite a swell so when the boat was stationary it was really rocking from side to side
The crew members then started pouring buckets of blood into the sea to attract the sharks and he was briefed on what to do and not do in the cage. He was told emphatically "do not try to touch a shark and keep your hands and legs in the cage at all times"
So dressed in a black wet suit looking like a seal, he starts climbing down the ladder holding on for dear life as the boat is rocking so much
He makes it into the cage and they are lowered into the murky water
He then said, he hardly saw a shark because the cage was being battered around and as he was pushing against the water to keep his arms inside the cage, the cage moved and his legs were sticking out, so he'd be kicking like mad to get his legs in, the cage moved and his arms were out
When he surfaced, he said he'd never been so knackered
