Bite marks on the mauled shark suggest it was at least six metres long

TheScotsman.com: "Picture: Great White shark mauled by Greater 20 ft White shark" -Published Date: 28 October 2009

Same story on FoxNews:

Dunno if my post is of the same fish... Just thought it was interesting along the same lines... That pic is of a 10 ft Great White with a major bite taken out of it... Whatever the Great White was which took that bite was impressive in it's own right.

Reminds me to step OVER the mud puddles...

Apparently.

From the first picture posted it appears the Loch Ness Monster was finally caught.

The perspective of the picture merges the shark’s body with that curved structure behind. I had to look at the picture several seconds to re-orient back to what it was supposed to be presenting.

I was quoting Quint from the movie Jaws. Mr Hooper says, “OMG that’s a 20 footer” and Quint replies, “25. Three tons of him...”

It almost looks like that guy has a Garand slung on his shoulder, but hard to tell from the grainy photo.

If this one really happened, why haven’t we seen more pictures of it after the fact!?

How did they know that the skinny dipping girl from Jaws had dandruff?

They found her Head and Shoulders on the beach!

You are skeptical of Foxnews/SkyNews? It really happened. One can find multiple sources on the web. I included two.
