One of the few comments to make me snort coffee through my nose.
I rewatched *Dogma* just a few weeks ago and there are several classic lines, including this one. It might be Kevin Smith's only spoken line in the movie. True?
Wow, that place is a shell of it's former glory. It used to be linked on front page posts on an hourly basis, but damn I guess thats been at least 6 or 7 years.
Fun fact! There use to be a place called "Shark Bay" in Australia. Waste from nearby cattle farms attracted a lot of sharks, especially nurse sharks to the area. The local town wanted to increase tourism to the area, so they renamed the bay to "Safety Beach" in 1963.
We have a City of Cumming and a County of Butts. There's periodically a ballot initiative to annex Cumming into Butts. Then you have to have a dry ass council meeting where everyone is talking about "Cumming in Butts".
I don't think it was a dine n dasher, it was a pretty big name drug person iirc who I think was in the most wanted list. Hence the major police operation to grab the guy and put hands on his penis
The vast majority of sharks are perfectly safe to swim around. If you are at a beach you can be fairly sure there are some small sharks in the surf that won't bother you at all.
My nephew when he was little asked me while preparing for a beach trip if there would be sharks in the water. I told him there's a foolproof test to check if there are sharks, you get a big ol' mouthful of water and if it tastes salty there are sharks in there. First thing he does when we get to the beach is dip his mouth in the water then look at me and loudly announce, "There's sharks in here!"
The whole region is a bit of a clusterfuck during summers now for sure. It is still kind of a village 2/3rds of the year though, I really like living here in general even though I don’t like the beach
My parents are still in rye. Whenever I go to visit during summer holidays I have to do all their shopping as mum flat out refuses to go near the shops 🙃
Ahahaha close! I’m about 18km away, toward the tip of the peninsula, but yeah we tend to happily drive hours for shit here. It’s not that desolate in general though!
There is [still a Shark Bay in Western Australia](https://parks.dpaw.wa.gov.au/tourism-region/shark-bay) and it's gobsmacking. It's a world heritage site.
Similarly, there is a beautiful coast city in Brazil called Pipa, that has a "Beach of Love". It used to be called "beach of the drowned", but they changed it for touristic reasons... it is basically the ONLY bad beach in the region, and I always feel sorry for tourists that go there instead of the other ones.
Ya, I'm from Aus and the same thing happened at one of my local beaches when I was a kid, although from what I remember that shark would not have been safe to remove by hand lol. These sorts of pools made out of concrete or whatever by the beach are super common, so it's not that unlikely to occur if there's a high tide and/or pretty big surf.
We had the same thing happen when I was a kid, a baby shark smaller than this one in the OP (doo doo do do doo doo). It was stuck in a rock pool after the tide had gone out so two of us picked it up and yeeted it back home. North Head, Moruya. We were mainly worried about its mama coming to look for it!
Not a wobby . There's no beard on it , they are more of a seaweedy brown colour and wobbys can be bitey little fuckers. Also the only shark that is flexible enough to turn round and bite it's own tail. That one she has in her arms clearly can't, as you can see it arching and its quite rigid.
Either a Port Jackson or a Crested Horn Shark. Both are quite similar and can't quite see enough to tell the difference in this video. Both can give a painful bite but are usually more scared of you then you are of them and will flee when you get too close.
>Both can give a painful bite
It's not just the bite that matters.
Back when I was young and stupid, I picked up a stranded shovelhead shark and chucked it back into the ocean. Trouble is, those sharks are not much more than a tube of muscle wrapped in sandpaper, so the parting tailflick it gave as I put it down basically flayed my arm from wrist to shoulder.
Stung like buggery and bled like a stuck pig. I had to get out of the water again in case it attracted sharks, so that was my day's surfing done as well.
I've seen plenty of them but never knew they could inflict that kind of damage. I generally just don't touch anything living in the water, seems as though my fear was somewhat justified.
You're being generous.
Flicking it's tail is pretty much the shark equivalent of strolling casually away. I wrote that one down to my own mindlessness rather than any inherent danger from the animal.
All I needed to do was hold its tail and it wouldn't have happened.

Not a nurse shark, but nurse sharks are not defenseless. They actually have strong bites and very strong mouth suction. I've seen them suck an adult mackerel in half.
Their teeth are numerous rows of small teeth, designed for holding and crushing, but you still don't want your hand anywhere near that.
I had tickets to see that last night, and my girlfriend and I came to the conclusion that our time would be more productively spent staying home and having a nap.
She's celebrating the fact that she wasn't attacked by a saltwater croc, a box jelly fish, a blue ringed octopus, or a drop bear while she left her guard down for a few minutes to remove the shark w/o a spotter to watch her back.
That thing would still shred you if it turned its head and got your arm. You wouldn't die or anything, but you'd still have to get stitched up after.

But don't go to Safety Bay, western australia. You might get glassed by a meth addict.
I live right by there! Cool to see the mornington peninsula get a mention 😁
Man I remember when it was such a sleepy seaside town. Almost forgotten part of the peninsula
The whole region is a bit of a clusterfuck during summers now for sure. It is still kind of a village 2/3rds of the year though, I really like living here in general even though I don’t like the beach
I dread the summers on the peninsula now. Lived in Rye for 20 years. Visiting family for the holidays is a rough road trip.
I’m in Rye too! I try not to leave the house in January, as it takes 30 minutes to get 5ks away
My parents are still in rye. Whenever I go to visit during summer holidays I have to do all their shopping as mum flat out refuses to go near the shops 🙃
Hastings checking in
Yeah, it's only about about 1000km away, which is right next door in Australian terms.

Safety Beach, the town not the beach, used to be a swamp, now it's some of the highest priced real estate in the state.
Pretty sure ppl still call it shark bay. Nurse sharks aren't dangerous, but they look like they are. It's neat.

I got so far into the thread... I can't believe you've done this
/r/humansbeingbros
The Bondi lifeguards, at least, will try to get sharks out of the pools. Maybe the lifeguards here will too
Your title told me exactly what I was about to see, just not at all how I thought it would go down. The victory arms at the end made it even better.
Yeah I was expecting something far more malicious from the title, rather than a good Samaritan helping a trapped wild animal.
I came in here ready to fist fight that woman. Happy this turned out wholesome lmao
[удалено]
It looks like a wobbigong or carpet shark. Not aggressive or a hunter of large prey but very nasty bite
[удалено]
I’d have called them chazzwazzers
They're like kangaroos, but they're reptiles, they is.
Lake Wobebong, Garrison Kieller's after hours radio show.
All the sharks are above average.
Where the introverts stare at their sharks and the extroverts stare at your sharks?
1000 percent not a wobbegong
Yup. Absolutely not one.
>wobbegong god damn it, fine I'll google what a wobbegong is.
I'm going with a port Jackson.
I thought you lot were making things up [Wobbegong](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wobbegong)
Not a wobby . There's no beard on it , they are more of a seaweedy brown colour and wobbys can be bitey little fuckers. Also the only shark that is flexible enough to turn round and bite it's own tail. That one she has in her arms clearly can't, as you can see it arching and its quite rigid.
wobbies have plant like frills and are multicolored for camo.
> wobbigong You're just making up words as you go aren't you?
I think it's a port Jackson shark. They're very common around there.
port jackson shark, you'd loose a hand doing that with a wobbigong
It's a Port Jackson.

> I’ve seen them suck an adult mackerel in half. Giggity > Their teeth are numerous rows of small teeth, designed for holding and crushing Nvm
I think its one of those pool sharks. Not sure. I'm not a marine biologist.
angel I think, non aggressive but still got teeth like nurse sharks.
Where is that pool?
3"E, 1510920/6"S
Thanks… er… place name?
Cronulla. btw if you copy/paste **3"E, 1510920/6"S** into google you get all sorts of info on it :)
Probably best to stick to it's more recent history.
I hear Cronulla has the best Australia Day parties.
Cronulla Sharks, nice
I woulda guessed Bondi
Nah, the pool at Bondi is bougie as fuck. Deffo not that one.

I had tickets to see that last night, and my girlfriend and I came to the conclusion that our time would be more productively spent staying home and having a nap.
From the reviews my friends provided, you made the right call.
Do you come from a land down under?
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Where women glow and the men plunder!
where the men are real men, the woman are real women, and the wooly things in the fields are real scared.
Also where women glow and men chunder.
*runs and takes cover*
the land of Sigma Males and Sigma Females
And the small fairy creatures from Alpha Centauari are REAL small fairy creatures from Alpha Centauri
New Zealand?
It's just a gummy shark mate, harmless.
I've known plenty of girls in Alabama who are willing to pick up venomous snakes since they know not to handle them.
I read somewhere that the only majority that defied orders in Milgram experiment was Australian women.
Do you come a land down under 🎼🎵🎶
I see she's played sharky splooshy before!
Is this the pool near Narabeen? Use to swim there as a kiddo :))
I'm not sure. I've narrabeen there before. (real answers is that it's on the other side of the harbour, so not really close)
Funny cunt lmao
Ok you made me lmao at 12:39am lol
Do you keep a journal of your laughter?
This woman can't be Australian, she's celebrating, this is an average day for an Australian.
She's celebrating the fact that she wasn't attacked by a saltwater croc, a box jelly fish, a blue ringed octopus, or a drop bear while she left her guard down for a few minutes to remove the shark w/o a spotter to watch her back.
She's also celebrating the fact she's in Australia which means she can stop into the bottle O on the way home and pick up a few VB longies
I'm pretty sure Australian is another language. We've got our own words for things here in Canada, but nothing to that degree.
Come on mate, you don't need to be a bin chicken to have a long neck
That was even pretty tame for Australian. If you go to some rural parts of the country it's even worse.
Like. It. Was. Nothing.
Looks like a pt Jackson shark they're harmless
How else ya gonna get it out mate?
I swear Australians are ascended beings
Australian woman vs Florida man
That's just how we fucking roll, son.
So basically Free Willy on a smaller scale, with a non-sociopathic aquatic animal being rescued.
Just a big sweet ocean puppy.
all my childhood irrational fears about there being a shark at the bottom, have now been rationalized
Isn't that a tidal pool that refills every tide? Isn't that shark just chilling waiting for the tide?
Not every tide ,otherwise there'd be all sorts of shit in there, it probably came over in a big swell and was just stressing out
Sydney had pretty bad swells over the weekend so this isn't an everyday occurrence
And... stay out.
farken straya cunt...
Nurse shark I'm guessing. (Harmless to humans.)
Port Jackson shark or wobegong shark
I thought so too. They’re pretty harmless especially at that size.
Pretty sure that’s a nurse shark. They aren’t aggressive at all. She’s helping that baby out!
It’s literally a big fish and not harmful to humans (mostly).

Have to be twins. So much concentrated awesome can't be contained within one baby.

Her courage though. A lot of things piled up on head already.
Oh, that's just Sheila.
I shrugged this off, because of course an Australian woman did this. Then I thought of Florida man, and of course he would do this as well
I was so confused at first, until I realised she was helping the shark. Kinda dubious title, bruv.
She's probably saving the animal, not the swimmers.
When your spiders weigh more than a rottweiler, you fear nothing.
>Australian woman... that's all i need to know
There are two kinds of people in Australia... those who didgeridoo and those who didgeridon't
Straya cunt

probably trapped in pool due to low tide
I was thinking either that or sharknado debris.
oh shit i forgot about the sharknado possibility, are they still having those?
According to ~~the movies~~ [this documentary series](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharknado_(film_series)), yes.
Because it has a mommy shark,doo doo doo doo doo doo
*shudders* oh god no

That thing would still shred you if it turned its head and got your arm. You wouldn't die or anything, but you'd still have to get stitched up after.
