    This is God's truth. Before the movie Jaws in the late 60's we would go to Dayton beach and spend all day on those short rental rafts in water over our heads, riding the rafts and body surfing. I can remember standing at the surf's edge and with the lifeguards closing the beach to swimmers because there were sharks in the shallows. I can remember standing there watching their fins go around and around, thrashing back and forth and my only emotion was being pissed off because I couldn't get into the water. Never for a half a nano-second did it cross my mind that I would ever be bitten by a shark. After maybe after 30 min to an hour after the shark fins were no longer sighted, we'd all be back in the water past the breakers just happy as clams that we could get back out raft and body surfing. When I saw the opening scenes from Jaws, around the mid-seventies, I almost passed out and have never felt comfortable in salt water since.

      every year there is a huge gathering of black tip reef sharks around daytona; the black tips gather for a migration of stingrays, and probably for mating. great whites and bull sharks arrive as well, they're there for the black tips.

      Carbrook Golf club. The sharks were stranded after major flooding. What I like is the golf course adopted the sharks, they lived off the fish in the pond and people feeding them meat. The golf course changed their logo to be a shark, they have a junior sharks golf program. They capitalised on it for sure!

      Nearly invisible corrosion will develop a very thin film on the battery posts. Had a car just die going down the interstate. Later a sister stopped by my house, shut her car off for a few minutes and it was stone dead. Both cases were that thin film crap but both were cured with a few minutes of steel brushing. There's more stories but a sudden loss of electrical ....check the battery posts.

  • @stevesellers-wilkinson7376

    If a bull shark is in brackish water, the lack of salt wouldn't make them dehydrated. The opposite would happen due to osmosis. However, bull sharks of all ages can osmoregulate so can tolerate any salinity. Research suggests that the limiting factor for adult bull sharks living in fresh water is availability of sufficient food. It is thought to be that which drives adolescent bulls out to sea. I don't know about how much food would be available in brackish water, though. I surmise it is dependent on the size of the river/estuary, local geology and topography, pollution levels, tides, season, and many other factors...

    I met several South Africans in Hawaii back in the 80's. The were

    That's when I heard they only got to use the crappy beaches because they were black! Very uncool.

      They were probably telling you the truth, although I would be surprised if Petrus Sithole was swimming in dangerous waters because he was black, as the black swimming areas also generally had shark nets and barriers to keep sharks out. What probably happened is he thought the white section of Margate Beach was nicer for swimming than the black one, but wasn't allowed in the white swimming area, so he ended up swimming in between the two swimming areas where there was zero protection. Very sad case, and a good reason for anyone to rather stick to swimming in areas which are netted in, even if the netted in areas aren't so nice.
      Unfortunately many of South Africa's beaches (particularly on the east coast) are now not very nice at all, and you are quite liable to either find you are swimming in horrifically polluted water now, or are quite open to being mugged.
      EDIT: just putting this comment in, in case anyone is tempted to think the South African government of the time did not put shark nets or barriers in at black or non-white beaches.

    Let me first start by saying thank you for your show 💖 I have lived in Florida off and on my whole life since the 1970s started originally swimming on Jacksonville Beach as a child.. I will definitely agree with everybody who has been struck by a shark but not bitten as I was not bitten.. but I was slammed into two times in the space of about 20 seconds.. and at the time I was a larger person well over 200 lb and I was stuck in the mud up to my knees in the rivers leading to pine Island beach in spring Hill Florida and the second hit literally blasted me up out of the quick mud and I was able to get back into the boat and rescue... But it literally felt like I had been hit by a car going at at least 15 miles an hour.. and I have not been in the ocean since 😢 this happened to me well over 15 years ago and I still have the scars on my stomach and on my back....🦈 #1.... Human DEFINITELY #2. And the craziest part of all of this is bull sharks DNA is programmed to bump and bite and it did not bite me even though it's slammed into me two times!!!! I love sharks and I love all of Mother Nature's Creatures... But in the sea and in the brackish water which is where I was the sharks definitely rule.. us humans would be wise to not forget that!!!!

    Fyi, Casino Beach aka Pensacola Beach is Bull shark central. And its so tempting to go out to the sandbars because the rays and turtles congregate there. Thanks Hal.

      My sister and I used to swim way out from the beach. We’d go way out past the sand bars. Water skied the bay, the beach, Quiet Side, the bayous and rivers. One day, my sister and I were swimming quite a ways out and my parents were on the beach, waving for us to come in. We commented that they were party poopers…and then…in very deep water, about ten feet apart…we both kicked something really hard…we swam back to shore, and when we got back, dad said nothing, aa he never wanted us to be afraid. Jaws did it for me. I’ll just stick with Minnesota.

    I think I know the video of the hammerhead chasing something swimming to that guy to try and use him as cover that you're talking about. The description of Petra Rijoes wounds do make it sound like the shark bit her while the tube she was on was still in motion.

And that wall behind Hal too, I’d love to have that in one of my rooms. Great show visually as well as the straight forward and honest story telling. Addictive.

Spent 6 days in a hospital and that was the worst part for me, but the initial shock was pretty intense. The funny part is that those are so rare here that the hospital people didn't believe me even though my arm was swollen up to 2x it's normal size. They figured it out.

    I went to the Philippines on holiday with my girl and her parent's. A private resort, lovely beaches. Anyway i rented a canoe and was assured it was safe, nothing there that can harm you and didnt see any big fish. Anyway went to the bar that night and the barman (a local) told me their are definitely sharks and salt water crocs in that water. The person renting the canoes said there was nothing to worry about and couldnt take my cash fast enough. But the barman told me there is a reason no locals go into the water on that part of the beach. Boring story but when many of us are on holiday we see the ocean and how beautiful it is but have no idea what the hell is lurking out there. I am much more caution about getting in the water after hearing storys from that guy about missing locals who didnt come out of the water. Im pretty sure the local government's in places like that cover things up so as not to impact tourism and income.

    Thank you Hal for another episode. I've been told by so many that I shouldn't let my "fear" keep me from doing what I love......these people compare that driving a car has dangers. Yes it's true, but I know I am a very good driver, I drive defensively. In the ocean, I'm a good swimmer, but so much danger is unseen, under the water, and unknown currents and conditions. Swimming defensively is not even close to driving a car... a car accident is truly an accident.....being attacked and mauled/consumed by a shark is personal. IMO.
