fjuno78 Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 interesting thread. i tend to believe statistics are nonsense. Way more people hunt deer, use vending machines, and sleep in a bed than goof around in the ocean, especially at depths that sharks swim in. This reminds me of the comedian Bill Burr's skit when he talks about not wanting to scuba dive, and his friend insists that most shark attacks happen in shallow water. Bill's response is, "of course they are because that’s where the people are". LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL Well i was speaking to a marine biologist at a seminar today and here on long island they found 5 blue sharks which are suppossed offshore sharks in 30 feet of water about 30 yards from shore off democrat point. So i believe anything is possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GCJim Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 I would also hate to fall out of bed while kayaking. That's gotta be be a real biatch, what with the hardwood floor and all........ That's gonna leave a mark for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skidsteer Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 See http://www.ocearch.org/#SharkTracker and click on sharks tagged in Cape Cod to see where they have traveled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
