A true reign of terror.
Surfing, as both pastime and sport, has been completely decapitated in this time of Coronavirus. Marched up the steps by radical ideologues, laid upon the wooden bench, gleaming blade let loose, head removed from body and caught in a wicker basket while the eyes slowly fluttered shut.
The whisper that our beloved dance was aiding in the spread of a wild pandemic too much for a fearful public to bear, unleashing draconian laws, unseemly fines.
Untold boredoms.
A true reign of terror.
Well, in very similar fashion, a violently dogmatic Tiger shark recently attempted to decapitate a gentle diver in Fiji in front of his friends and loved ones.
Attempted to teach a harsh lesson about social order and the impotence of monarchy and/or man’s dominion over this earth.
Per The Fiji Times:
A horrified friend, who witnessed the attack several feet below the surface, told The Fiji Times: ‘The shark turned to bite the divers and my friend was the unlucky one.
‘At that time all the dive masters rushed to push her away, but it was already too late.
‘His head was in the shark’s mouth and later the dive master managed to kick her away.’
The group was hurried back to shore, where the victim was taken to a local clinic for treatment.
The friend said that while the Malaysian embassy helped them sort everything out, the tour operator, who has not been named, took five days to apologise.
It is thought that the attacking shark is the largest in the bay, known as ‘Survivor’ or ‘Big Mama’.
Other divers said tour groups regularly play ‘Russian Roulette’ with the shark, which often approaches divers and has to be pushed away with sticks and poles.
Big Mama the Jacobin.
Very scary to think that sharks are getting political and hewing to far, far left mostly discredited methods and means.
Extremely off-putting.
