Hmmm. Some as large as 5 feet ? I`m sure glad we don`t get schools of sharks here, we measure ours in metres, and 3-5m sharks are not uncommon, but then they`re not called Great Whites for nothing. Last count was 14 sharks just behind the break-line in False Bay, a day after a lady was killed by one. That`s where the surfers tend to hang their legs off their boards, think I`ll stick to sailing, thanks.
There seems to have been an increase in shark attacks in Cape Town recently, I think cage diving operations who bait for them have caused this.
Oh and Jake, While I understand your point, when last did you see a vending machine swimming just below the surface, looking for food ?

Paragliding is safer, `cos sharks can`t fly.
