Darwin Award Candidates

I'm glad they're okay, but, ummm, just wow.

Shark Attack at 57 metres in Papua New Guinea - YouTube

looks rehearsed as in they have figured it out and now a video, they were looking all around knowing it would be coming in fast.

Also I like the single al80 at that depth, every where you look nowadays it comes out divers dive deep on a single tank.

The title of this thread says it all in context of the above statement.

I think "Paul" needs to learn how to attach a tank to a BCD.

Sorry, they don't qualify for the Darwin Award… unless the shark bit a body part that was obscured.

Wow. This reminds me of an old vid of a guy getting out of his car on a safari to feed a pride of lions that weren't living up to his expectations. You can probably figure out the results.

That wasn't a shark attack. It was the dive version of poking a dog with a stick until it bites you. With the added optional fun of getting bent from diving to 57m on single AL80s.

Whats the significance of rubbing the coke bottle? Why does that attract sharks? I tried googling it but dont really come up with much.

The noise simulates an animal in distress. It was a deliberate attempt to provoke an attack. Too bad the shark only grazed him. The gene pool would have been better off.
