Sharks, 30 feet and up. A swimmer would be just a snack.

And Crocs too.

Big Crocs.

Still making Australia a thrill.

I recall see a 17'+ Hammerhead Shark hung up on the Intercoastal Waterway Bridge in Pompano Beach years back.

I used to swim there with our faithful Collie "Heather" who thought she was a skindiver with fur.

Funny thing is we were never afraid; no fear; nature was something we lived within and in harmony with.

But I do recall a gang of us playing "Pre-Jaws" one night across from Hillsboro Lighthouse:

A large truck inner tube

Wrapped with heavy cloth under a parachute cord

Welded link shark chain and hook

Bloody chicken

Inner tube over a piling

Tossed in the baited hook

World's largest rubber band

Shark lost bigtime

Cut out his liver for our cat

Cat just stood on it

Liver was 10 Xs bigger then out cat!

Today's kids complain about everything little thing.

Did we save his "JAWS"?

No

We were just kids
