Australia is well known for its sharks; if you’re surfing off the coast there’s always a chance you’ll bump into one of the depth’s scariest predators. But about 100 of them going gangbusters devouring a whale up on the beach — you don’t see that everyday.
This shark-infested scene was captured by Rachel Campbell while out on the beach in northwestern Australia. I think I’d run for the hills and never go near the water again after witnessing that little lot, but Campbell is obviously more of a man than I am — she and her mates just went 1.5km out to sea to go surf anyway.

so people still surf in sea infested with sharks…. wow we sure with in a world full of ignorance.
You still drive on roads that are infested with cars that are more likely to kill you than sharks..
you can control cars & avoid crashes by driving safely… u cant control a shark or what comes out of the sea
P4PERTR4iL is such a douche bag!
Yeah because everyone else on the road drives safely don’t they. You are also more likely to die by being hit on the head by a coconut than by being eating by a shark. Everything you do has a risk..
Even more interesting, I found out yesterday that you’re more likely to be killed by a revolving door/escalator/lift or other similar piece of machinery than you are a shark. Something like 50 times more likely!
Sharks are intelligent creatures, they won’t attack a human for no reason, we don’t have enough meat on us and generally they steer clear. If they mistake you for something then they’ll go for it. The same can’t be said for most of the people I see on the road, they’re generally idiots in attempting to control 2 tonnes of metal and failing miserably.
That said, I f**king hate sharks and anything in the sea, I won’t go in unless there are loads of people around.
I drive every day – guess I’m crazy.
Gotta admit I get a bit freaked out surfing by myself. As the saying goes, always go surfing with a friend, it cuts your chance of being eaten by a shark by 50%
unless there is 2 sharks. then your fucked
Proper fucked?
Where’s the laser beams?
so u trust a shark more than a human car driver?…. i think i have said enough…
Thank you for giving me a phobia towards coconuts.
‘so u trust a shark more than a human car driver?…. i think i have said enough…’
Yes, yes I do, you cannot seriously be that small minded that you cannot look at hard statistical fact and see that the truth of the matter is that you are more likely to be killed by a moronic boy racer than a shark.
It’s a Sea Sheppard nightmare.
Sorry, first thing that popped into my head, as I’ve been watching so much whale wars. The last episode where the hippies boat nearly sinks, and the woman running around screaming, “I didn’t sign up for this.” was hilarious. That’s excellently what I’ve been watching for. That Paul Watson is going to kill someone on his own crew sooner or later.
