Re: Great white in Fort pierce
On Saturday another person was eaten by a great white in western Australia while surfing. This is the 5th fatal shark attack in west oz in 10 months, and 7 in the region in a little over 3 years. They still won't do anything and the Greene pricks say there still near extinct. West Australia is now the deadliest coast in the world, and the govt just takes a back seat! If you all are seeing more of them I wonder if there's been a population. Explosion?!

Re: Great white in Fort pierce

If you want to know more about his research, this is his website. http://www.marinecsi.org/about-us/ His name is Micheal Domier. He could probably look at the two videos and tell you in a couple minutes. Tell him Keith sent you his way. Cool video, they are the single most impressive critter I've ever seen underwater. |

Re: Great white in Fort pierce

Re: Great white in Fort pierce
Sweet video! I definatly would not want to be bobing around on top of the water with one of those lurking around. It's pretty wild watching footage of Great whites launching out of the water for seals.

Re: Great white in Fort pierce
Reminds me of an adage I came up with or accross, as a kid, reading way too many shark attack accounts.
You never want to be the first one in the water or the last one out. |

Re: Great white in Fort pierce
Its funny how you give the news channel a story and when you read it later it's all wrong!! The cam was not on a pole it was in bare hands.
