okay...
of the twelve known shark attacks in Australian waters this summer season there were three fatalities...
during the same period there were probably a couple of hundred deaths on our roads
a dozen swimming pool drownings.
a hundred murders(australia wide) etc...
so the chances of actually being bitten by a shark let alone being killed by one is still remote...
at the beginning of this thread i posed a guessing game of how many attacks did members think there would be in Aussie waters this period
the submissions are as follows:
MAG2NYC...........5
Music Head.........7
CRAZY................8
SteveO..............23
so, with 12 attacks i guess i was closest to the mark with a guess of 8....
im just thankful SteveO's guess was way out of the ballpark!
