It’s Been A Good Run, Humans, But There Is An Actual Mega Shark On The Loose
October 28th, 2009
Remember back in May when we all saw the trailer for Mega Shark Vs. Giant Octopus and had a big laugh before returning to our buckets of fried chicken as we slowly and complacently drifted to sleep with the knowledge that humans will always reign supreme in the real world? Well wake up and wipe that grease off your chin, people, because we’re gonna need a bigger boat.
According to Sky News:
A giant shark that could be up to 20ft long has sent shockwaves across Australian beaches after a great white was nearly bitten in half.
A stunning picture shows a 10ft predator thrashing about with two massive chunks missing on either side of its body, off the Queensland coast.
Experts said its rival may be 20ft (about six metres) long, judging by the size of the huge bites.
Basically, it is time for us humans to pack it in. With the ice caps melting and whatnot, we will never make it in a Waterworld-type future where great white sharks get lightly nibbled like they were disappointing cocktail hors d’oeuvres.
I’m no shark expert (I still have two more semesters left at Shark School), but upon further inspection of those bite marks I think this may not be the work of a Mega Shark after all. By my calculations, whatever took a bite of this poor great white looked a little something like this:
