Newsflash: Sharks eat people that swim in bloody water
Knock-Knock-Knock… hello? McFly? If you place chum in the water and then swim in it, you just might get eaten by a shark. A tourist died yesterday on a “shark dive” after he was bitten in the leg. Click here for full story. The excerpt from the article below is a masterpiece:
The company’s Web site says it offers the opportunity to get “face to face” with sharks. The site explains that its hammerhead and tiger shark expeditions in the Bahamas are “unique shark trips … run exclusively for shark enthusiasts and photographers.”
To ensure “the best results we will be ‘chumming’ the water with fish and fish parts,” the Web site explains. “Consequently, there will be food in the water at the same time as the divers. Please be aware that these are not ‘cage’ dives, they are open water experiences.”
Brilliant marketing. I wonder if these guys run any “in your face” safari outings? They could dump you out of a Range Rover in the Serengeti wearing nothing buy a bloody steak vest, a head-lamp, and some Lion pheromones. But be warned, this is an open plains experience without any shark cages or guns and shit.

Wookiemac - Stupidity is just natures way of thinning the heard, just like oriental woman drivers and STD’s.
ha. i actually wrote about this too today. i like your lion analogy better though.
Mike: yeah, but they keep making stupid people
TM: but it’s not half as funny as “i’m a shark, i’m a shark, suck my dick, i’m a shark!”
In French Polynesia, I was in the water with black tipped sharks for an experience. I didn’t have blood in the water around me, but the 6 foot sharks were close by. I wasn’t worried, which points out the problem. On vacation, we all think that Disney keeps us from harm.
Get outta town! I’m cancelling my shark diving experience toot de suite.
I suppose though, by putting that information on the website, it saves them from getting sued.
Dumbass people out there!!!!!
