      (CNN) -- A shark attack Friday killed a 20-year-old man off a beach on Vandenberg Air Force Base, said the Santa Barbara County, California, Fire Department.
      Surf Beach is one of three that sits on the coastal air base, and the military closed all three beaches at 9:46 a.m. Pacific (12:46 p.m. ET), shortly after the shark attack, an air base spokesman said.
      The three beaches will remain closed for 72 hours, the spokesman said.
      Surf Beach is open to the public, but the other two -- Wall and Minuteman Beaches -- are open to base personnel only, the spokesman said.
      A coroner was on the scene about noon Pacific, the spokesman said.

          I thought it was a loan shark. Shows how much of a degenerate I am.

            I go swimming in the ocean almost 6 days a week year round. The same spot where there has been 10 shark attacks in the last 8 years.

                Saltwater is great for the body actually. People buy bags of salt to put in their bathwater. Ever heard of Dead Sea salts?

                    Salt water is good for you. It heals old scars and detoxifies the body like others said.

                        I have a pool about 100 feet outside my house and the ocean is about 850 feet outside my house. I rarely go in the pool. Nothing like swimming in the ocean!

                          I like that spot. Close to where the 4th of July fireworks are?

                            I use to have a condo right on the beach in Marina Del Rey and I use to go out for a swim every morning about 6am. The Pacific ocean is cold as shit by the way.

                            One morning the tide pulled me out from shore a good 300 - 400 feet. I'm treading water when all of a sudden something big bangs into my waist and mid section. It pushes me a few feet. Imagine my horror when a fin pops up right in front of me. The pacific is murky and the visibility is horrible. If I could run on top of water I would have done a JChrist right then. The fin turns and comes right at me and it was a huge dolphin. He got up in my face and I think he was trying to play with me. He had patches on his skin and seemed menacing and powerful in the water. I quickly swam back to shore as I was close to a heart attack with my heart beating so fast.

                            A few minutes later a bunch of dolphins (like 5 or 6) all started playing right in front of my house. They were surfing, jumping, etc. for about 20 minutes. I grabbed my camera and caught the action. It was pretty neat but I kept thinking that as quick as a dolphin came up on me, it could have been a shark just as easy. I've never swam too far out after that.

                            A couple of years ago, I was in New Smyrna beach in Florida with my wife and we were watching guys surf as we were about to go in the water. We started seeing fins surfing right along with the surfers and I asked a guy what was it and he said sharks. Sure enough, dozens of sharks were in the water and some looked like they were trying to nip at the surf boards. Come to find out that New Smyrna is the shark bite capital of the world. There's more attacks at that one beach then all other beaches combined. Crazy...

                                cant remember the comic who said it... maybe chappelle... said you cant call it a shark attack in the ocean.. if a shark bites you in your shower, then its a shark attack.

                                  I have been around Dolphins many times while I am swimming. There are Dolphins all over Santa Barbara as well as Sharks.

                                    About a 2 minute walk from where the fireworks take place.

                                        I think he's going to need a bigger boat.

                                          Water is scary, I do not even know how to swim

                                          I stay away from water and plus I got a temper when it comes to water

                                          I fear it actually, fear jellyfish getting in your ass and see weed getting in your fukkin mouth
