Surfer survives encounter with shark

Surfer survives encounter with shark.





When surfer seth mead was surfing on Oregon's Gold Beach, he reliazed a shark right next to him in the water and so did the person talking the photo. But it was too late. The shark pushed mead out of the water while attacking him and chomping down on his left foot. The animal went away but mead was Injured badly

GOLD BEACH - If he had wrapped his arms around the shark's head, Seth Mead said, he wouldn't have been able to touch his fingers together.

That's how big it was. But Mead never got a glimpse of the rest of the great white shark. He felt only its teeth, tearing into the flesh of his ankle and foot. The shark charged the 26-year-old surfer Monday morning as he sat on his board just south of the Gold Beach south jetty, waiting for his next wave. The force lifted Mead and his surfboard completely out of the water.

The attack was the first since 2002 on the Oregon Coast and only the fifth documented on the Pacific Coast this year.

"He's really lucky," said Laura Stansell, a Gold Beach surfer and friend of Mead's. "The doctor said 15 days and he'll be able to surf again. He just needs to get a new board now."

Never mind his injuries.

"He says it's just a scratch," said Mead's grandmother, Joyce Ternyik of Florence, who received telephone calls from "The Today Show" and media outlets across the country requesting interviews.

"His father says it looks like a power saw accident," she said. "The gal doing the stitching said she has just gotten through doing a Rottweiler bite, and the shark's cuts were so much cleaner."

Mead was resting Tuesday in Gold Beach with stitches closing wounds in his right ankle and foot. Reached by telephone, he said he felt OK but groggy and tired, and declined to talk further.

The day before broke just before 7 a.m. with an idyllic Oregon Coast sunrise and prime surfing conditions at the mouth of the Rogue River. Because the south jetty's rock structure protects waves from the wind and provides a break point, it's a popular spot for local surfers.

But because salmon are spawning in the Rogue River, it's also a popular spot for great white sharks.

Mead, a Florence native who lives in Gold Beach, had gotten into the water with his roommate, Gus Gates, who knows him from Siuslaw High School and Oregon State University, where the two studied fish biology. The two know a lot about sharks, Gates said, and it was easy to tell that this one was a great white.

"It was a classic September sunrise morning," Gates said. "You couldn't ask for better conditions. You and your best friend, head-high surf, light offshore winds. It doesn't get much better than that - minus the shark."

Gates had to leave for work after catching a few waves, which left Mead in the water by himself - something surfers usually try to avoid. He was sitting on his board, waiting for the next set to break when the shark knocked him - board and all - into the air, biting his foot, ankle and board in the same instant.

"He said the board was balancing on the shark's head," Gates said.

Mead screamed at the shark. But before he could utter a coherent phrase, the animal quickly released its grasp and let Mead go, his neoprene boot spurting blood into the chilly water. Seconds later, the next set of waves came and Mead caught one, lying on his stomach on the board - the quickest way he could get to the beach.

He paddled to the beach and was worried that he might not have a foot, he later told his grandmother, so he stood up on it to make sure. Then he drove to the parking lot, where he spotted a Gold Beach police officer who administered first aid and called an ambulance.

Emergency workers at Curry County Hospital stitched up his foot and ankle and released him - with a healthy dose of pain medication.

"There were two gashes on his foot and three on his lower leg, below the knee," said friend Brandon Middleton, who watched him get stitched up. "He seemed to be in pretty good spirits."

This wasn't Mead's first encounter with a shark. In 2001, his friend Tres Tucker wrote to the California-based Shark Research Committee about spotting a white shark at Florence's South Jetty while the two were in the water.

"As I sat upright, my foot planted solidly on something one to two feet below me. It was solid, but slowly sunk under my weight," Tucker wrote.

He had stepped on a shark. He thought to warn Mead, but by the time he spotted his friend, "the look on his face made me turn around to see a very large fin, at least 14 to 16 inches high, passing behind my feet."

That shark didn't attack, however, so the two paddled for safety. "I used to prefer to surf alone," Tucker wrote. "But now I know ... maybe I've never been alone."

Mead's was the third attack on record at Gold Beach, said Ralph Collier, president of the Shark Research Committee.

"More than 60 percent of all shark attacks occur at the location of a previous shark attack," he said.

Shark attacks are scary, Stansell admitted - but they probably won't keep surfers out of the water.

"He'll surf again, I'm sure. It's probably not a good idea to surf alone at a jetty with a lot of fish life around it. But it's hard because there's not too many surfers around here," she said. "My dad gets really mad if I surf alone."

Seth's father Bill Mead said he knew that a shark attack was always a possibility.

From Chantal Uren. This is my story

From Chantal Uren. This is my story... My name is Chantal, I'm a 37 year old Police Officer from Western Australia and I had a severe reaction after receiving the Pfizer vaccine. To the people who threatened me with defamation charges and disciplinary action for telling my story, I am disappointed. I'm disappointed that your priority is to silence me for your own ego and agenda rather than ask if I'm ok and offer me any help! At no time have you asked if I'm ok or cared for a second about my health or welfare. You decided that putting me under more stress, when that stress can cause further risk to my life is your priority. It makes me question humanity and how any person can have such a lack of empathy towards another.  If defamation and disciplinary action is what you deem suitable than I'm not afraid. I've done nothing wrong, I did what you wanted and look what happened. No one has the right to take away anyone else's experiences or tell them how they sho...

The 19th Century Kim: 'Hottentot Venus' whose big bottom

The 19th Century Kim: 'Hottentot Venus' whose big bottom This woman is named Saartjie “Sarah” Baartman. She was called Hottentot Venus by her captures. This poor 19 year old South African woman was sold by her slave master and exhibited naked in a traveling freak show in 19th Century Europe. White citizens obsessed over seeing the genitalia, buttocks and attributes of this beautiful Black woman. She was tortured and killed, at 25 following cruel experiments performed on her in the name of science. (This is a wax display of how they exploited her) Sarah Baartman (Afrikaans: [ˈsɑːra ˈbɑːrtman]; c.1789– 29 December 1815), also spelt Sara, sometimes in the diminutive form Saartje (Afrikaans pronunciation: [ˈsɑːrtʃi]), or Saartjie, and Bartman, Bartmann, was a Khoikhoi woman who was exhibited as a freak show attraction in 19th-century Europe under the name Hottentot Venus, a name which was later attributed to at least one other woman similarly exhibited. The women were exhibited fo...

The story of Sawney Bean, Scotland's most famous cannibal

The story of Sawney Bean, Scotland's most famous cannibal. Strangely enough, the bizarre 2006 film ‘The Hills Have Eyes’ was actually based on the folklore story of Sawney Bean, the head of an inbred cannibal family.  See the illustrations and go inside the bizarre story of Sawney Bean, Scotland’s most famous cannibal and inspiration behind ‘The Hills Have Eyes’ —  Legend maintains that for over 25 years, Sawney Bean and his incestuous family of cannibalistic children terrorized medieval Scotland. According to folklore, the family would descend upon unsuspecting travelers and then dismember, pickle, and devour them. Some estimate that the family cannibalized up to 1,000 people — until one man escaped and told King James VI. The story appeared in The Newgate Calendar, a crime catalog of Newgate Prison in London. The legend lacks sufficient evidence to be deemed true by historians, and there is debate as to why the legend would have been fictionalized; nevertheless, the myth of ...

A GUIDE TO MAGICAL CALCATA, AND TO THE MYSTERIOUS ATMOSPHERE THAT SURROUNDS IT

Very ancient village, Calcata, Roma, Italia,  finds its origins in the prehistoric era, during which, it seems, it was already inhabited.  Then it became an important outpost of the Falisca civilization in Roman times.  Still, in the outskirts of the town, there are ruins of the city of Narce, with a Faliscan temple at the base and the necropolis of Pizzo Piede. The first news of Calcata as an inhabited center, however, dates back to the Middle Ages.  For the first time the name Calcata appears in a document dated 772-795.  Even today some medieval ruins are still visible in the village and its surroundings.  Over the years, then, Calcata experienced periods of great solitude, until 1935 when it was deemed unfit for use: it remained deserted for about 30 years.  In the 1960s, once again deemed safe, Calcata returned to be inhabited.  It was a group of artists and hippies who, struck by this village suspended in time and far from the city, decided ...

Ancient egyptians applied mouldy bread on infected cuts and wounds to heal them

Ancient egyptians applied mouldy bread on infected cuts and wounds to heal them The ancient Egyptians used mouldy bread on infected wounds and cuts in order to treat some patients, and no one understood why. Until the year 1928, five thousand years later, modern science arrived if it was discovered by the scientist Alexander Fleming that penicillin had a great effect as an antibiotic on bacteria. What is the relationship of bread to the subject? When bread is left rot, it secretes a fungus called Penicillium, from which penicillin is derived, the most famous antibiotic used so far to treat bacteria known to the Egyptians 5,000 years ago. The Egyptians used mouldy bread on infected wounds and cuts in order to heal them. The mouldy bread is full of bacteria and fungi, which worked as an antibiotic and killed the species that resulted in the infection. Antibiotics are kind of antimicrobial components active against the bacteria and is most essential kind of antibacterial agent for defendi...

Meet Tenzing Norgay, The ‘Unsung Hero’ Of The First Successful Summit Of Mount Everest

Meet Tenzing Norgay, The ‘Unsung Hero’ Of The First Successful Summit Of Mount Everest Edmund Hillary was the first person to climb Mount Everest, but he couldn't have done it without Sherpa Tenzing Norgay. Born in the Himalayas, Tenzing Norgay grew up revering the "mighty mountain" of Everest and the "goddess of the summit." Though his father gave him a name that means "wealthy fortunate follower of religion" in hopes that he would become a monk, Norgay dreamt of being a mountaineer. He ran away from home multiple times to hike among the peaks, and eventually joined his first official mountaineering expedition at age 20 in 1935. By the time he was 40 years old, he had spent more time on the face of Mount Everest than any other person alive. ⁠ ⁠ So, when a British expedition was looking for local guides in an attempt to reach the summit, they turned to Norgay. And on May 29, 1953, Norgay and New Zealand mountaineer Edmund Hillary became the first peopl...
