  What to do if you find yourself stuck with no hope of rescue: Consider yourself lucky that life has been good to you so far. Alternatively, if life hasn’t been good to you so far - which, given your present circumstances, seems more likely - consider yourself lucky that it won’t be troubling you much longer.

  If anyone tells you the water is shark-infested, tell them it’s not. Water is where sharks live. Shallow water near beaches is human-infested.

  Southern Australian springtime swimmers who properly update their Bayesian priors know that sharks are the true danger, NOT lightning strikes or plane crashes

  I worked at a beach resort in FL for a time, it was crazy going up to the 20th-ish floor and seeing all these ppl swimming around sharks and had no idea…

  This looks like a screen capture from MalibuArtist on YouTube. It’s a great channel if you have any interest in sharks and marine life.

  I’m happy to steer clear, I’ve never been friends with the beach anyway. Also, gotta try to adjust those stats and not make us humans out to be total idiots

  I would get really fucking impressed to get attacked by a shark in balaton, a larger sized lake
