FAAAARRK
A surfer has been attacked by a shark near Wedge Island this morning, police say.
A police spokesman said emergency services were heading to the scene, about 4km south of the island.
He said the man's injuries were extensive
Farrrk scary. Ultimate classic shark weather at Lano today. Glassy and overcast. Wondered what the sirens and helis were for. poor bloke
Oh crap thats really bad news
The radio just said it may have been fatal
Lets hope not..
another death , how about we start talking about what may be causing the increase in shark numbers and how to deal with them.
my vote is culling.
Was it north or south of the island? Perth Now is saying north but I heard it was south.
Vale RIP
RIP and condolances to all his family and friends, was at Lano today. Only reason didnt go up there was time restraints.
Good on all the people who helped him or tried to help him, not a nice situation to find yourself in so big ups to all on the scene.
Totally agree with keeping this thread as a condolances thread and not one that ens up getting lost with the political situation surrounding what has happened.
Been reading this forum for a cupla years but never posted...RIP to another brother lost doing what he loved. Thoughts and prayers to family and anyone involved.
Bloke was only 24yrs old. 4 to 5 m white pointer. 2 bites and he was gone, Long way from help out there
RIP! Thoughts are with his friends and family!
Really sad! And scary how often this is happening lately
Exactly where I park most times. Exactly where I spent seven hours two weeks ago with no-one else within 300-500m. Exactly where me and two other guys off the forum went a couple of months ago. Exactly where I would've gone today with another forum guy if I didn't have some pressing responsibilities. Sobering.
Hope you're OK suba and anyone else who was up there.
RIP old mate.
Exactly my thoughts and probably of many others Legion. How many times have we, you, me and my mates....my 10 year old son, nephew been in that exact place???
Thoughts to all involved either directly or otherwise.
RIP young man
surfin offshore at the time saw all the choppers goin overhead scary stuff.condolences to all involved.RIP
Dawn patrol
I understand we need to respect at this time
But this did not need to happen
If we were getting half the info that fisheries have about these sharks we would be making informed decisions about where and when to surf
How many deaths is it going to take before people are willing to get together and demand answers or current info
of course i also say Rip and coldolences to family and friends.
