CACashRefund Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 'Gang of sharks' kills Australian An Australian woman from Brisbane has been killed in a shark attack at a popular beach near the city. Ambulance workers said the 21-year-old suffered extensive injuries, losing both arms below the elbow and sustaining deep wounds to her leg. Police suspect that several sharks carried out the attack, which happened on North Stradbroke Island. The victim was thought to have been swimming in shallow water with a local church group when she was attacked. Friends carried Sarah Kate Whiley from the water and she was quickly flown to hospital by helicopter. However, she had lost large amounts of blood and had gone into shock. She died later in hospital. source Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteOx Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 and a fatal shark attack at Stradbroke Island I remember being there last year and wondering what some buoys at a beach were for and being informed they were hooked lines with huge chunks of meat - which worked on the principle that if sharks were in the water they would take them instead. I remember thinking that was pretty stupid seeing it would just attract sharks from everywhere. edit. beat me to it cash refund Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abracadabra Posted January 9, 2006 Author Share Posted January 9, 2006 another reason for you guys to stay home, the Irukandji Jellyfish. oh, and they're virtually invisible (they're transparent and are only about the size of your thumbnail.) i was watching a tv show about them and the pain they cause looks excruciating. and there is no anti-venom. The initial sting of the jellyfish is usually not very painful. But about 5-45 (usually 30) minutes after being stung, the person starts to have a severe backache or headache and shooting pains in their muscles, chest and abdomen. They may also feel nauseous, anxious, restless and vomit. In rare cases, the victim suffers pulmonary oedema (fluid on the lungs) which could be fatal if not treated.

Are there a lot of spiders in the city? (I'm not sure which city you live in). Quoted post I'm pretty sure the most venomous spiders are 'funnel-webs' which live on the north shore of sydney. However, after reading shit about those US spiders that have venom that breaks down flesh real fast and gives people festering holes, I woudn't be too worried.....Unless you go to the north shore: They live in holes in people's yards: and can bite through thumb nails;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mullet Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 We also got killer kangaroo's. Like this one time I was obviously riding to school in my kangaroo in the middle of the street, as we do, and and a ruffnecker ozzie rulez playa kicked the oval ball up in my face. So I orderd my slave kangaroo to fly kick this honkey in the head. He obviously died Thats how we role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
