          Location: Bastrop, Texas | I used to dive 2-3 times a week back when I lived in the Caribbean. I lived on the island of Saba, well known amongst diving enthusiasts, as it is surrounded by marine park. I think I've seen almost every species of shark in the Caribbean! except for a White, thank God. I even saw some dumbass tease a little nurse shark who was laying still on the ocean floor. The guy was really a dude and kept poking the little shark with his knife to get it to swim. Finally, it darted out and whipped around real fast, bit him in the ass and shook like a mad dog. Then he swam off. The guy inflated his buoyancy control device and shot to the surface like an elevator.....not a good move. His fancy, multi colored wet suit was ripped in the ass and he wound up with a dozen stitches in his ass. I know what I sound like when I laugh uncontrollably underwater now! | |
