Irrespective of the sharky conditions, it was pretty damn unlucky and definitely wrong place, wrong time.Gster wrote:The Lifeguard HIMSELF was a shark attack victim some 20yrs ago!
The guy is a hero and has VERY big bollocks to go back into a danger situation.
I am sure Steve's family will get autopsy information about which sharks attacked, but I would assume that Steve might well have been in the wrong place and the wrong time and maybe the victim of a feeding frenzy?
I suppose if one fish had a bite, others would then follow and if he was injured, I suspect things turned really ugly very quickly.
Maybe he had a problem with his body (muscle tear / cramp / asthma / heart etc.) and needed to stop?
Potentially he could have lost the wind in a lull and his kite went down?
Even worse and more disturbing, maybe his line(s) broke and had a serious 'on the water' kite issue, did a water pack down and was in the wrong place at the wrong time in a shoal of shark.......if so, he was very unlucky indeed.
