We don’t have a lot of sharks here in the winter time, but when summer rolls around they all head back for the buffet in the warm waters.
We live in the shark attack capital of the world where over 300 people have been attacked so far.
There were 17 attacks last year, with four of them being fatalities and two of those where they never found a body. When that happens it means the shark ate the whole person, or a majority of that person, and then the other sharks came in to eat the rest. Gas fireplace repairs seem pretty safe compared to shark attacks, but I also crave surfing to help me forget about my HVAC tech job in the office. I have been sitting on my surfboard a few times in the evening trying to catch “one more wave” and saw a fin cutting very close to me so I would head back in immediately. My HVAC specialist friend was on his board one time when a big shark knocked him off of it, but luckily a shark spotter at the local business was able to scare it away with a horn. If that guy wasn’t there at that time then the surfer would have been a dinner for a big great white looking for a meal. My local contractor friend lost his left leg from a shark attack after going surfing when he finished a big heating and cooling repair job for the HVAC company that he works for. He doesn’t surf anymore because he said it was the scariest thing in the world.
