Australian woman killed by bull shark in "chest-high water" - close enough to be heard and laughed off as a joker by friends.

*shudder*

At 9:37 PM, my little eye said...: Nature over here has a bad temper. The same day as the unfortunate woman in "chest-high water" died, a seven year old kid died from stings inflicted by a jelly fish. My Irish colleague stepped on a sea anenome yesterday and found himself booking in for an operation under general anaesthetic to remove spikes from his toes. Nature: don't try it at home.
At 11:45 AM, Oblivia said...: Never mind the wildfires and record temperatures too. I've been stung by a jellyfish before - also in "chest high water" - but this really takes the cake. I always thought surfers and people who were really far out were the only ones in even remote danger.
