News that makes you say WTF! (73 Viewers)

Die? Probably 10-20 at worst. Fatalities tend to be higher in Australia than the US.

I think they generally treat them like big bears. Humans are not a natural food source, but there have been occasions where there have been multiple attacks by one shark, which then has to be found and killed.

A dude just got maimed by a shark at Taree (three hours north of Sydney) yesterday. They are *fairly* common in Australia.

So this guy got fired for saying "fucking shit" on his first ever broadcast. What makes me say WTF is, after hearing him talk, how did he get the damn job in the first place?

 

[Zacheryah]

Why?

The anchorman. How he dissed their own correspondant when she was insinuating the link between checknya and the bombers, and all kind of accusations.

The way he shut her down, and when she didnt want to quit it, gently said "i dont want to be rude but we cannot go this path, we'll have to and that here, thanks for your insights"

The right thing to do on that specific time

IMO, they seem nastier in South Africa. Seeing the shark lookouts over False Bay near Muizenberg, you'll know what I mean.

Sharks are actually a real danger in back beaches and sometimes even inland beaches in Australia.

This one is not in the list, but it happened in Sydney Harbour. I remember we watched a documentary thingo on this one in school once... horrific injuries.

Getting maimed by a shark and losing your leg is no big deal.

So? If you got bitten by a shark, do you think you wouldn't mind because people kill 100 million of them a year??

 

[GordoDeCentral]

forget the 100 million, this fearsome scary animal killed 12 people all year out of the 100 million who went swimming surfing and diving in its habitat, gee that sure sounds really scary

If you meet a shark, sure it's scary and you really can't do much, but shark attacks are rare.

I don't see what the problem is. I'm not allowed to be scared of shark attacks??

you are indeed allowed and welcome to poison your life with irrational fears

 

[ZoSo]

You try going to beaches where sharks are known to be and with previous attacks and not be a little worried....
