Hope the captain goes down for manslaughter....

The article states that the guy that got mauled was a lawyer. I didn't
think that sharks would attack lawyers our of professional courtesy.

Er... maybe that's "snakes"

Which reminds me of another joke:

What's the difference betwene a dead snake in the road and a dead lawyer
in the road?

Theres skid marks in front of the snake.

Just saw video of another darwin wannabe "captain" swimming with the
sharks.. At least it was the captain that lost his hand this time, not
someone he suckered into paying him money.. hopefully he can't drive
any more... assholes..

At what point in the deal does the captain put the gun to the customers
head
and order him/her to sign on for the charter and jump in?- Hide quoted

Well, by that logic, a drug dealer should be able to operate in the
open too. I know, I know,, drugs are illegal... So is most base
jumping, so should be shark diving, that's my point. It not only gets
people killed who go shark diving, but there is also good logic in the
idea that those sharks might come looking for food from someone who
was not stupid enough to train then to look to humans for food. What
is so difficult about that?

I have very little sympathy for folks getting injured or killed while
involved in potential life threatening recreational activities such as base
jumping and swimming with sharks.

then you should also have very little sympathy for those that are
getting injured or killed from other careless acts, like not taking
care of theirselves, allowing themselves to be in the vicinity of
various chemicals, and other environmental hazards for years, those
that drive cars, those that cross the street, those that drive trucks,
those that operate heavy machinery, and on and on.

Should we now start blaming the pilot when a sky diver dies after jumping
off his plane and the parachute does not open?

No one put a gun to those folks heads to jump or dive..........where does
taking responsibilities for ones actions kick in with you?-

You take risks every day of your life.
