A Timely Reminder of My Own Mortality
Posted by Ray @ 10:38 pmYesterday (or the day before, my time zones are still a bit funked), a 21-year-old woman was swimming some 15m off the shore of Amity Point on North Stradbroke Island, Brisbane, Australia. There, she was attacked by possibly three or more sharks of unknown species, lost both her arms, and died shortly after being evacuated to a Brisbane hospital. [link]
If you recall, North Stradbroke Island is where we went diving a scant couple of months back.
Despite the scare, I’m probably continuing my dives there next semester.
Wish me luck!
