Ever wonder what happens to sharks that made the mistake of attacking a slightly under weather BE member?

Lots of sharks about at the moment. Sydney roads are way more dangerous.

Anyone going in the BRW Triathlon in April? Swim should be quick.

Do you think that the frequency of sightings or attacks seems to be increasing, or are the media just making more of them than they normally would do?

Has anyone re-considered any beach activities because of the reports?

Would love to know what you think?....

The number of attacks is MUCH higher this year. It's not the media, it is what the statistics say.

When I lived in London I (and other Australians) used to be able to say, "Oh, no, there are only one or two shark attacks a year. Australia's not really that scary."

I cannot say that anymore, because there have been so many shark attacks in the last twelve months I've lost count.

this was caught of the end of the jetty at wello point in brizzy, where teens jump off regularly.

ok, so it's only a baby bull but it would still take quite a chunk out of your calf.
