“I knew something was different because the sharks were on the surface,” says Tayane Dalazen, a 37-year old Brazilian lawyer and social media personality.
“There were a lot of them,” she says. “Later, I discovered [the tour organisers] were feeding the sharks so that they would interact with the tourists.”
Dalazen, from Sao Paulo, was on a shark-diving trip on the Brazilian coast in April when she suddenly felt “strong pressure” on her leg.
“When the shark bit me, the pain was very strong,” she says. “I stayed calm because I knew I couldn’t fight the animal.”
Incidents of sharks biting humans are incredibly rare, but at least three influencers have been bitten by the animals in less than a year. Scientists say they’re increasingly concerned about the rise in social media videos showing people swimming too close to sharks, touching or even riding them.
“I’m seeing these videos every single week now and it’s way more than it ever used to be,” says shark scientist Kristian Parton, who also hosts the ‘Shark Bytes’ YouTube channel. “We’re going to see people ending up in really serious incidents with sharks.”
In July, a fishing influencer almost lost his leg after being attacked by a reef shark whilst spearfishing. In December, a Chinese content creator was bitten in the Maldives. Both incidents were caught on camera.
What the fuck is wrong with these idiots?
The fantastic social media has a lot to answer for.
I am however a keen advocate of Natural Selection.

Besides its the Arawak people that are indigenous to Jamaica and not the mattered haired yardie cunts moaning.
And it was the Spanish not us that colonised it and filled it with slaves.
it was the British who liberated it from the evil spanish.

Good point that, Mis.
In a way, it’s like Britain’s park key community asking Germany for reparations because of the Blitz.

In all the time it has existed, I have never took part or been interested in social media.
It is a hive of nutters, narcissists, attention seekers, griefjackers, woke loonies, Walter Mittys, ready to be offended freaks, bullshitters and other monstrosites and mongs. One instance is the modern parent mong. Posting photos of their infant children all over Facebook. Shrewd move, eh? So every Joe Ronce and Kiddo Fiddler can see them, knows their names and knows where they live. Fucking imbeciles of the first rank, and bloody cunts. I wouldn’t put my cat on Facebook, never mind a kid.
A grassing culture is also rife. Faceless, nameless cowards calling for someone to be sacked and lose everything. Just because they don’t agree with them or they told a joke ten years ago. Gina Carano❤ was right, when she said the social media grass culture was similar to the Nazi collaborators who grassed on Jews to the SS.
Morning Tez.👍
