It's safe to go back when your with a couple of your surf buddies. Just make sure you can paddle faster than they can.

:lol:

whatevers brah. dont get hit by any more cars.

Tigers are pretty bad though. Tigers and Bulls generally are the main killers/serious injurers of humans. Maybe give it a couple of days if the coast guard doesn't close off the beaches.

A harmless fellow, although there is talk of makos.

Nah, don't worry about it.

We don't and there's only a few places in the world that get more Great Whites.

I'd try an find a photo (of the paintjob, not me naked!) but I'm leaving going away for the weekend in about 45mins.

Dude, sharks suck. Here in Laguna Beach, dolphins swim around pretty often, so surfing with them is great. As for sharks, eff them!!

Ha, a "Great White" has been seen off cornwall. Or possibly a mako, but definitely something 'predatory' :roll:

This made me laugh though...

Worldwide there are fewer than 100 shark attacks every year and just a handful of deaths.
Against that, 1,600 people are bitten by other people in New York every year, 150 die from coconuts falling on their head and more people are killed by dogs in the U.S. each year than have been killed by Great Whites in 100 years.
