Question

Do you know anybody who's ever been or almost been attacked by a shark?

Answer 1

You don't think about it but everytime you go out there's sharks w/in a 1-mile radius.

I get a little nervous when I see sea lions because that is what great whites chomp on but it's part of surfing and you deal with it.

Answer 2

NO, if you surf you just don't think about sharks.

Answer 3

i hate when people think about sharks. YOUR NOT GOING TO GET ATTACKED

Answer 4

no never known anyone. It's incrediably rare so just don't worry about them and if you're really freaked about it surf in an area with a reef under it or alot of seaweed because sharks don't tend to go in those areas and don't attack there.

Answer 5

Yes. Shaper Bruce Grimes. He was in Mexico last month and was bitten in the hand. He's really fortunate though, the other two shark attacks in Mexico were fatal.

Answer 6

you have a better chance of winning the lottery than getting hit by the landlord. id be more worried about the stingrays and jellies

Answer 7

i haven't been attacked, but I've been bitten twice (different days)

I live in Florida. Its not that big of a deal, because there are sharks everywhere where I surf. I'm sure many ppl have been nipped.

I do, however, have scars from both times.

My foot has a jagged scar running from the middle of my ankle, all the way to my smallest toe.

My left knee has a small scar (less than an inch) from when a sharked just nipped me.
