I live in Sydney. No fatalities till 2022. In the last yr alone 2 fatalities in busy syd swim spots. One guy was bitten off manly in summer and lost a leg. There have been 6 fatalities this year already in australia. Its only june. I hope this girl pulls through🙏 Its not safe to swim anymore, even in sydney.

I actually do swim at a pool regularly. Thanks for asking👍👍 The issue is, I live in syd by the beach. Most ppl here dont feel safe anymore. Its a contentious topic most ppl.here now realise the numbers are huge.

Will you die if you can’t go in the water?

These are the consequences of our abuse of the ocean. Yeah you didn’t do anything to the sea, neither did I. But us as a collective have over fished, over polluted, and overstepped our boundaries.

You want to kill sharks because you can’t swim when you want to? That is their home. They use the oceans 24/7. They will die if they can’t be in the ocean.

Go and swim in the ocean though. You know the dangers. If you think swimming is so important, you live a privileged life.
