Man bites shark! Shark bites man!

Who is at fault? Who cares! It's great viewing!

I know that you are watching the Fiji Pro right now. Matt Wilkinson is so tired! Gabe Medina is so not! But it is any man’s game. And real quick, is Matt Wilkinson better than John John Florence? This should have been JJF’s day, right? Big throaty tubes? Scared everyone else? But Matt drilled him twice.

And is today’s Gabe Medina better than Kelly Slater in his prime? Let’s deal with that tomorrow. But for right now, before we crown Gabe Medina champion of the Fiji Pro, watch this!

A spearfishing diver goes out and, I think, shoots a shark. Do you spearfish? I wish I did but don’t. Rory Parker does and does it often, I feel. I asked him what equipment I should buy when I was in the Red Sea last and he gave very good advice.

In any case, the shark proceeds to bite the man. How many times do you get to see that? Not many. You hear many and read many but not see many. Does it change your “If I get attacked by a shark…” strategy?

I don’t think he shot it – the gun appears to stay loaded. Just trying to gently persuade him to move along. Whatever the case, it backfired.
