MSN just had a shark biting quiz on it the other day.
It seems almost everything happens more often than a shark bite. The only exception was winning the lottery.

The lamest part is that is the largest shark ever caught but they REFUSE to recognize it as a record since their boat came in 6 MINUTES after the derby officially ended.

LAME

Not really , Tiger shark are more massive on the average. And you wont see white shark as big as the one in Jaws , that would be like a record. People often claimed that 10 meters white shark existed but thats b******t people exagerate just like the time that a guy claimed that he saw a 15 meters one.

really really big white shark are 5-6 meters long and very very rarely 7 meters.

You certainly know a lot about exagerating... a better summarization might be "flat out lying".

he prolly googled it

like this from a google search:

Quote:
Most of the largest sharks are found in South Australia. The largest one ever recorded was 6.4m (21ft) long, and weighed 3312kg! The maximum length able to grow is thought to be 25ft. Though some people claim to have seen sharks as long as 31ft. The smallest Great White shark caught was 47inches long, but was newly born.

The thing about a shark, he's got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eyes. When he comes after you, he doesn't seem to be living until he bites you, and those black eyes roll over white. . . .
