That happened in Humboldt County to someone I went to high school with.
But the bit out of his board was nothing compared to that. Wow.
Meanwhile, in Australia... “Witnesses on his boat saw a large amount of bubbles surfacing, followed by the diver’s body which police said had obviously fatal injuries.”

What kind of surfing can one do on a “deceptively calm morning”?
Darn near prophetic words!

“...Gumm became the mistaken prey of the biggest living nightmare in the ocean.”
How was he “mistaken prey”? He wasn’t a seal but he still would have made a tasty treat. I don’t think the shark took him for anything other than food.
Of course animals don’t mean to hurt us they are just misunderstood.
Yet another reason I stay OUT of the ocean; I love being on the shore, MAYBE piddlin’ around snorkeling in the tide pools but not IN it. *SHUDDER*
I avoid large fresh water bodies, too. Sturgeon & your larger Northerns/Muskies can bite ya but good!
*SHUDDER*
Maybe I sound like a wimp, but I breath AIR and don’t have gills for a REASON, LOL!
“Within seconds, heaven turned to hell, as Gumm became the mistaken prey of the biggest living nightmare in the ocean. “
Silly journalist. The only true “mistaken prey” is when an animal attempts to devour a *nonedible* object.
Humans are edible, and we are not on top of the food chain.
God saved that man’s life. I pray he takes that seriously.
