    Holy shit 2 shark attacks on a basically the same North Carolina beach within 90 minutes of each other, both kids lose arms, and the girl has significant damage to her leg. Had it not been for an EMS working making a tourniquet out if string, maybe she bleeds out.

    Wild story.

    Not safe to go back into the water!

    Jets and Sharks never mixed in West Side Story or on the beach

    So there goes ocean bathing this Summer

    Wonder what the shark experts are saying

    I feel bad for those kids

    They are thinking it was the same shark. It's extremely rare to have a shark attack at all, much less two in and hour and a half.

    Possibly a rogue shark.

    Edit: That was dumb. All sharks are rogue, that's why they are SHARKS.

    Maybe there is some correlation with the ocean temps changing or global warming and shark frenzy

    Looks like a Big ole White tore up Flipper's ass (dolphin most likely was already dead though)

    There has definitely been more attacks this year, and in NC it looks like there have been a few videos of sharks feeding on the shore line.

    Not sure the cause/reasons, but volume of attacks is not normal for NC beachgoers

    They say warmer waters attract them because of the food supply.

    "Y'all know me. Know how I earn a livin'. I'll catch this bird for you, but it ain't gonna be easy. Bad fish. Not like going down the pond chasin' bluegills and tommycods. This shark, swallow you whole. Little shakin', little tenderizin', an' down you go. And we gotta do it quick, that'll bring back your tourists, put all your businesses on a payin' basis. But it's not gonna be pleasant. I value my neck a lot more than three thousand bucks, chief. I'll find him for three, but I'll catch him, and kill him, for ten. But you've gotta make up your minds. If you want to stay alive, then ante up. If you want to play it cheap, be on welfare the whole winter. I don't want no volunteers, I don't want no mates, there's just too many captains on this island. $10,000 for me by myself. For that you get the head, the tail, the whole damn thing."
