Fatal shark attack in Australia

A swimmer spent his final moments screaming for help and struggling to fight off a massive four-and-a-half metre long great white shark before being eaten alive as horrified witnesses watched on.
The man was taking an afternoon swim off Little Bay Beach when his life came to a tragic end in Sydney's first fatal shark attack in 60 years.
Regarded by locals as one of the best kept secrets in Sydney's east, the beach was packed with dozens of swimmers, paddle boaders and rock fishermen at the time.
They were alerted of the danger by the swimmer's ear-piercing screams but could do nothing but watch on in shock as the monster shark ripped the swimmer into two and 'swallow parts of his body'.
'Footage clearly shows a body, half a body being taken by a shark,' a police officer told colleagues over a scanner when human remains were found an hour later.
'Someone just got eaten by a shark. Oh man! Oh no! That's insane. That's a great white shark,' one fisherman can be heard yelling in footage.
'F*** man, I heard a scream and the shark was just chomping on his body and the body was in half just off the rocks here.

You know where I have damn near a zero percent chance of dying from a shark attack? Sitting on my front porch.

Yup. I never heard of anyone being attacked by a shark on the golf course.

Dude on the rocks never even took his fishing pole out the water.

Ahh, American white liberals about to take over now. That sucks. It also sucks I’d think to be eaten by a shark

Recently learned Australia has a lot of saltwater crocodiles as well. Scary arse place to be in the water.

one of the rare times that I see something on the news before it's reported here, also, pretty rough water to be just "out for a swim"

So much for the line that sharks only attack by accident, bite one time thinking someone is a seal, then spitting them out because we taste bad.

Maybe the swimmer wasn’t swimming with a mask and the shark was just taking a bite out of crime.

That was a pretty rocky area for a casual beach swim. I wondering if the guy was spear fishing?

Sharks gotta eat too

That settles it. Going home. Ordering pizza. Getting stoned and watching jaws tonight.

was thinking something similar, water was way too rough for just a swim, and if he had a fish on him it could explain why the shark kept biting him instead of spitting him out after one bite
