not cool. That is insane how it just hangs around surveying its handy work. If I ever saw one of those things in my local waters like that, I doubt I'd ever go swimming again!
Don't forget to bring a towel!

Looked more like submarine to me. Good thing we can't see what's under the waves.

I think the hanging around after taking a big surprise bite out of large potentially-dangerous prey is SOP ( standard operating procedure ). They wait for the prey to bleed out, then come back in for the main course with no risk of the prey fighting back.

This Darwin-award winner is lucky a couple of brave blokes pulled him ashore, or he would have been fish food for sure.

Not to get too technical but don't you have to die to win a Darwin award. This guy is well on his way I'd say! :shock:

No, you can survive and still be eligible, so long as your genes can no longer reproduce. This guy may still get a Darwin Award. Depends on how high the shark bit! He's up for an honourable mention for sure!
