Amazing, glad this guy is ok. I appreciated his honesty, the story sounded like he was really, really, calm, until his admission to "screaming like a little girl" the whole time!

Seeing red

It seems like every reported attack on a yak involves RED. Usually its red Hobie's. Maybe this shark is trying to venture out and try new food.

I'm with Eric, for some reasons the color red seems to aggitate whales and sharks.Most non-fiction books I've read on ocean disasters,rescues at sea,and so on refer to the hull of the boats being red. People rescued at sea tell of their red hulled sailboats being battered for hours by whales. Just my deductions from my readings, no personal proof. Two things this guy did wrong,a) red colored hull,2) out near rigs on smooth calm morning where sharks like to roam....

Maybe the high-pitched screaming scared off the shark.
