Visitor from Romania suffers apparent shark bite at Big Island's Anaeho‘omalu Bay

A public accident investigation has been launched on the Big Island into a possible shark bite incident at Anaeho‘omalu Bay in Waikoloa on Monday. A 20-year-old man who was visiting from Romania said he was swimming about 15-20 feet offshore when he felt a sudden pain in his right foot.

Is that 3 attacks so far this month? And we’re not even in pupping season.

[@poginurse]

No more fish. Seems like they are coming closer to shore to feed

[@mjblue84]

Exactly!!!

[@Jah-Sun808]

Reporter: So if you were told there was a shark in the water, would you still swim?
Boy: No
Reporter: Why?
Boy: Because there's a shark (Duh 🤪🙄)
😂😂😂😂

Good thing we treat these things as endangered-

1 in a million chance of being bit btw...

Another shark attack story! What is going on! I’m hearing about so many shark attacks! I don’t want to hear anyone say shark attacks are rare or sharks don’t prefer humans. I don’t believe this! Everyone is fair game in the water!

[@buzz5969]

Sharks doing what they do, you know they are predators and not poodles right?

Well that Romanian guy will be standing in the car park with a poster asking for money for his medical bills.

[@carolrainey8463]

Do you seriously think God would make an ocean for people to get in and create huge sharks and other animals in it that can harm and even eat us !! What kind of God do you think he is anyway ?????

[@onekewlbraddah8460]

Sharks love european meat lol.

[@PeteHagen-sm4tn]

That's a good reason why White people shouldn't visit or spend money in Hawaii. Besides, the locals are unfriendly to White folks.

[@SamWesting]

Tamayo Perry?

[@Hannah11235]

Another racist who probably claimed they aren't "racist" they're oppressed lol also, look at all the shark attacks against non-european people. Racism makes people stupid

[@carolrainey8463]

God didn't give US the ocean to swim in. Read your Bible ! God created the ocean for the creatures living in it for THEIR HOME , NOT for our playpen !!!!
