"Very strategic."
Remember back when the world was pre-apocalyptic, hair salons were open, refillable sodas were the norm and we humans had two main concerns?
1) Keep the Country Country
2) Save the Whales
We have done a good job, all things considered, with number one. Country is still, ostensibly, Country thanks to many brave North Shore property owners painting the slogan on signs and putting them Kamehameha adjacent.
Number two, though, seems to have fallen through the cracks and let us not tarry. Let us fly to South Africa where a tagged ten-foot Great White named Helen “very strategically” drowned a thirty-five foot humpback while negligent humans watched via drone (watch here).
According to Ryan Johnson, a marine biologist reached for comment, Helen knew exactly what she was doing in heading for the tail, finding an artery then letting the poor humpback bleed for thirty minutes before attacking the sweet creature’s face.
“There was no hesitation. It’s as if she knew exactly how to go about it. Even though she was a fraction of his weight, she was attempting to roll him over, pulling him down to get his blow hole under the water, apparently in an effort to drown him. She managed to weigh him down under the water and he just didn’t come up again.”
Do you think there are any tagged sharks out there named Karen?
Are they depressed?
Are you depressed for not saving the whales?
You should be. Just this past year a humpback saved a diver named Karen from death by shark.

At least she wasn’t Helen Mucus.
Wrong thread
True or not, I am damn sick of Great White Sharks and our bull crap going on in the politics here in my beloved USA!!! And I wish the Covid-19 virus would just go away never to be seen again and take tRump and the GWS’s with it!!!
But, since I know that will Not happen, I hope every single person in the USA will get registered to vote in time for our coming Presidential election and GO VOTE in November 2020!!! (And WEAR your mask every time you walk out of your homes) Hopefully we will nearly all Vote Blue and dump traitor tRump like the chump he is… And maybe, just maybe then our world will right it’s self and we can all be kinder to each other and go shoot a great white shark when it is attacking a beautiful, special & kind whale!!! I hate Jaws!!! & Bullies!!!
heya chas,
i’m glad that you ain’t a carpenter,
for if that is a 10 foot GWS, well, your 35 foot measurement of a lil’ whale is waaay off…
err,
heya chas,
ah, i just watched your linkie,
thee vid sayz that ‘Helen’, a GWS, is a 14 footer…
what a stupid re~hash of some-ones else’s story, in my ol’ humble opinion…
https://www.news.com.au/tec…
I have nothing to add re: this story, I would just like to say that it’s been nice to read the comments on the last couple of articles without that Weet Bix Vagina wanker stinking it up all over the place. Tell me he’s sworn off for good?
I think he got Das Boot.
One of my mates is married to a Helen. She is like the GWS in that she has played the long game and totally bled the life out of him. Another mate was with a Karen for 30 years and two kids. He got out before she was a meme, but I think he knew.
Looks like the whale was tangled in a buoy line as well, so another question could be “did ‘Hellhen’ lassoo the whale before nipping it’s heals etc etc ?”
Altruistic act by Helen putting down Ricky (might have been whales name) like that as he couldn’t be untangled.
EDIT: changed whale’s name from Tony to Ricky.
In all honesty this is the only thing of value I have learned in 3 yrs of reading BG. Cool as shit. #dontfuckwithgreatwhitestheywillfuckyouup
Nice to see the rumored BG pivot to long-form, non-outright click bait shark articles wasn’t real after all! Yay!
I knew it was bs – Choz knows his market.
Retards can’t concentrate for longer than around 300 words.
Sorry I lost focus halfway through your comment.
I’m trying to figure out who Choz is.
I think that’s how they say Jaws in South Africa?
How do they say leash tourniquet?
Leash tourniquet.
And Im kiwi not saffa, ya cheeky cunts.
Choz is just another of the many shortened nicks for Charles.
In the extreme affected form of Royal Pronounciation eg Prince Charles sounds just like Prince Choz.
Not saying our one is a royal Prince but he certainly knows how to act like one ….
Same for Derek, Dezza, Dozza, Drek ….
Leash Tourniquet

I think BeachGrit is suffocating in its own arse and the writing is fucken shit. I only ever came here for the comments so it doesn’t really matter. But it would be good to see Chas stop swanning around like a fucken wanker and actually put his head down and start contributing something decent.
you don’t like his books? you can buy them on Amazon you know?
Yeah my brother got me the cocaine one for Christmas. I still haven’t read it but will let you know when I do. I don’t think we have Amazon in Australia yet. I think my brother got the book at the Salvos.
he is good on infomercials too
Wait until he gets you the next one. And the next next one!
I got the Hawaii one for 5 bucks at one of those pop up bookstores in the city.
word. terrible content.
That’s unfair and not true.
maybe ya missus could write for you too….
I just think you need a good rev up mate. I’m not trying to be a cunt about it. If no one says anything it’s just going to keep getting worse. If the shark articles are only intended to increase website traffic from the non-surfing masses to get you boys a bit more revenue then play on. I’m just confused about the game plan.
Damn it, you’re right. It was fair and true.
Can you please interview Sarge and people’s champ Occy?
