rpm Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 I have a HUGE fear of Sharks but I am willing to risk my life skydiving, jumping off buildings , stunting, etc.. but I will NEVER go near Salt Water. Is it true that their are Fresh Water Sharks and if so I heard a rumor back in like 1900's there was a huge ass shark caught in the Potomac River.. (Virginia, USA).. Is that true. :cry: :cry: Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mopper Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 yes maybe its the thought of being eaten alive or something. but you shouldnt worry about sharks, if you get bitten or attacked by a shark, you were asking for it. :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoSigma Posted January 1, 2004 Share Posted January 1, 2004 I can't swim :cry: Well I use to swim a lot when I was a kid but haven't been in deep water for awhile. I hope it's something you never forget like riding a bike :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blaise Veteran Posted January 1, 2004 Veteran Share Posted January 1, 2004 Grew up swimming in the ocean and back bay, never see em close onshore, but people catch hammerheads, tigersharks and the like as close as a mile out and sometimes in the bay. It all depends on how the fish they feed on are running, but its been decades since anyone was bitten here. @Rad..you swore you would use your powers for good only man tsk..tsk :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dallas Posted January 1, 2004 Share Posted January 1, 2004 well were i live (on the gulf of mexico) there are always sharks on the coast, but if you don't bother them, they wont bother you. so im not very scared of them, but im not going to swim if i can see them :) 2 summers ago a kit got his arm bit off, and his dad got the shark and got his arm back, and the put it back on, he lived too.

rpm Posted January 1, 2004 Author Share Posted January 1, 2004 That's a dumb ass thing.. About that kid who's arm got bit off and his uncle rescued him then wrestled it to the shore and shot in the head with a pistol. Well for your information they were SHARK FISHING off the PIER that was maybe 300 feet and matter of fact they let the kid go in the water so then the bullshark which can kill someone in knee deep bit his arm off.. They were putting meat into the water I mean christ I don't care if my uncle rescued me.. oh boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[LOF]skinnylegs Posted January 1, 2004 Share Posted January 1, 2004 if you get bitten or attacked by a shark, you were asking for it. Errr....not really. It means that you were in the wrong place at the wrong time. I surf on a regular basis and have been fortunate in that I have not encountered the man in the grey suit. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason the Eighty Eighth Posted January 2, 2004 Share Posted January 2, 2004 according to the FHM, if you ever see a shark, the best thing to do is stay still and punch it square in the nose. (really). sharks are most sensitive in the nose, so if it is hit there, the shark would think twice about taking a chomp out of you. ...or, you could carry a bat next time you're swimming/surfing and look like a 'tard :shifty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
