Thanks for the link Stuart. Glad the guy survived, but you wouldn't catch me diving for abalone or spearfishing in that part of the world...

Pah... dunno what all the fuss is about... just one of our pet fishies wanted a taste test...

He has a cool story to tell down the pub now and some scars to boot. It is fairly obvious why he was let go though. As the shark found out, a mind is a terrible thing to taste

Latest report he is sitting up in bed & recovering well. Wounds on his back are the worst. Story to be told exclusively so he came make a few bob so I heard.

That shark is probably swimming around licking its a** . trying to get the taste out of its mouth.

Some divers are willing to go through almost anything just go get a green glob!

We all know that sooner or later people will cast blame in any accident. I thought I might get in first.

It was a mask configuration issue and therefore Mares are to blame for the accident.
