              Snorkeling and swimming with wild pigs doesn’t seem to bright to me. What kind of tour is that? Seems like a recipe for a shark attack

                    Yes, anytime you go in the ocean you take the chance like any other place. There are predators and if you are in the wrong place at the wrong time you are at the mercy of nature.

                      Getting killed by a shark out of all other animals and insects is the rarest.

                        Some people have a death wish. Christ those guys in the first video were very fortunate. Wouldn't have took much at all.

                                    all shocking numbers. especially from the tapeworm with 2k up to 10k by snail, 25k by dog and 50k by snake really stand out. crazy. i always heard deer were pretty high as well from multiple car accidents.

                                            and the first 6 ways to die on the list seem more painful than any other. be hard to even rank the pain levels. all seem equally bad.

                                              I encountered a wild pack of freshwater snails once and lived to tell about it. Don't tell me about shark attacks.

                                                  I dunno, have you seen President Taft? Far more likely he ate the wolves.

                                                      I’ve snorkeled every day for a week in the South Pacific. Saw a lot of cool shit.

                                                      I’ve snorkeled in the Atlantic many times.

                                                      This story has me scratching my head because I was planning on taking my kids snorkeling in St. Kitts and St. Thomas in March.

                                                      What a horrible way to die. So sad for that girl and her family.

                                                        So sad. Terrible way to die. Bottom line. Humans are rapidly depleting fish stocks with over fishing while poisoning the oceans at the same time. Sharks are scavengers and will eat anything readily available. They know humans don’t belong in water and are taking full advantage of it.

                                                            I'd agree about depleted fish stocks - but I will guarantee you that sharks have not been giving it much thought.

                                                              That is brutal for her and her family to have to watch. That isn't normal shark behavior.

                                                                Tigers should be on that list but a lot of deaths are not tracked because they happen in india. At least with a tiger it would be over quick ��

                                                                      Divers who swim with sharks on TV can tell whether sharks are hungry by how aggressive they are in the water. They only swim with sharks when they're not hungry and relaxed.
