Sydney shark attack

[idahoblues]

No mate,they were well below me,and there was no rush.
Mad thing is,I know they are bottom feeders and would not cause no bother,but I knew they would come for a look about soon.
As I said,my arse just went,even though I knew there was no danger.

Would have been a great sight

Sounds fantastic.

It was mate,just lost my nerve.
About 20ft from the surface a manta ray swam right over my head,that was an amazing experience.
Must of had a 20ft wingspan.

Years ago when I worked deep sea we were drifting off the Italian coast awaiting orders. There was hardly any wind and the sea was flat calm. In those days we chucked all our waste overboard and it wasn't going far. Someone rigged a rope ladder up and a few lads were going swimming. I was laughed at when I warned them of sharks, especially with our food waste going in the water. One night there was a load of commotions on deck and I went out to see a 15-20 foot shark ravaging the rubbish. Needless to say that was the end of the swimming.

do it. it's fantastic , but as a parent you are on pins. i think the sharks are veggies lol.

I’d probably be uncomfortable if my daughter did it tbh.

I’ve always fancied swimming with sharks, must be a great adrenaline rush.

Did it at 30metres off the Maldives and it was wonderful.
I did however think to myself as they came closer up the sloped bank, ‘what the fnck am I doing here. ‘

Yeah, just thinking that,what's worse,burning to death,choking, plane crash?

Poisoning by partners cooking...

It seems the swimmer was suffering from dandruff......

They found his Head and Shoulders on the beach.

Have we all fin-ished with the puns?

I took the misses on her first scuba dive on the Barrier Reef many years ago. We were swimming around with a bunch of Reef Sharks, they were cute and playful (like Drone). It was the Moray eels that would suddenly come flying out of some hole or other that scared me more

There's also stinging rays.
The Aussie naturalist Steve Irwin met his end that way.

Just got back from the Maldives was snorkeling with sharks every day just 10m of our atoll all sizes up to 3m mainly Nurse sharks but black and white tip to, went from bum clenching scary to swimming out stroking (in a non sexual way) them, We had a jetty where they basically lived and there would be 20-30 of them asleep some times with the rest just swimming around you

I think it was called Ko Fanui or Fushi or something like that. I’ll see if I can find it later.
It was a long time ago on my honeymoon. The island was a tiny cheaper sand floor affair then. You’d walk around it in less than half an hour. Last time I looked it had turned into a 5 star luxury complex.

Edit: Totally wrong with the name. I think it was Reethi Rah that we went to with Kuoni Travel. I’m not even sure they go there anymore.
It is an all inclusive 5 star now.
