Great white shark attacked a diver in Sharm
Question to those who were in Sharm on December 1st. There was information that in Sharm on December 1, a white shark crippled a man. How realistic is this? My wife and I are divers and we were going to Sharm for the N-year. After this information on TV, the wife refuses to go. What information do you, those who were in Sharm at the time of the incident, have? We have a tour to Hilton Waterfalls, it's in the district of 1001 nights, closer to the port. Please, if there is objective information, give it!!!

I was not in the charm on December 1st.
but about the incident - yes, it's true. only the shark is not white, but longimanus (it is sometimes called the white oceanic, but this is not very common, usually the great white is associated with the name "white shark" among the people)
not one person was crippled, but at least 3. It's a little bit dumb to go, I understand.
on the other hand, 99.999% that all the attacks were committed by the same shark, which had a little "roof gone" (against the background of anything - abnormal heat, mutation, but you never know the reasons! People also go crazy). shark, of course trying to catch.
I think it will definitely happen before NG.
do not refuse the New Year's holiday in Egypt (probably long-awaited)
study the news, read the forums... there will be more attacks or not, the crazy shark will be caught or not caught....
I am sure that the shark will be caught and millions of people who travel to Egypt for this extraordinary sea will receive exceptionally positive emotions from the rest.
so tune in to the positive, do not rush to hand over tickets and follow the news.
if you and your wife are divers, you must understand that the case is out of the ordinary, if not anomalous.
good luck to you!

And we are going on December 8. We are also going there in the Reef Oasis Blue Bay. My husband decided to teach his 11-year-old daughter to swim with fins. Thanks for the information, I didn’t know about the attack. Let’s be careful!

P.S I followed the links and learned a lot. It turns out that the shark attacked people for 3 hours for 3-4 people, and all this, 5 meters from the shore, people swam with fins and masks. I LEARNED that in no case should you feed the fish from the shore (well, why no one in the travel agency told me this)

EVERYONE and ALWAYS warn about not feeding the fish. but no one hears this and they drag bread. and then the fish bite people. and 50% of the fish in the Red Sea (including offshore) are poisonous! DO NOT touch her.
plus the fish dies from the bread. sharks have nothing to eat, so they swim up to the shore. Egypt is full of sharks. always were. someone gets bitten every year.

On Tuesday and Wednesday, several shark attacks occurred in the Egyptian resort of Sharm el-Sheikh: tourists from Russia were injured. First, a shark in Ras Nasrani Bay attacked a married couple of tourists, seriously injuring the woman's legs and back, and inflicting severe leg injuries on the man. And then she attacked a 70-year-old tourist, also from Russia, almost biting off her hand and leg. The incidents occurred a couple of tens of meters from the shore.
“When I was attacked by this shark, I was teaching beginners to dive. However, I was able to scare her away by blowing air directly into her snout from the balloon. And then I saw how the shark swam up to the woman and bit her legs, ”the industry news agency Tourprom.ru quotes the story of diving instructor Salem Hassan. Salem saw how the water around him turned red with blood after this attack: “I immediately began to save my students from this shark.”
At the moment, it is known for sure about three shark attacks on Russian tourists.
Two more cases are pending confirmation

On tourist forums, eyewitnesses report that one of the cases occurred near the Dessole Nesco Waves 4 * hotel.
The victims were taken to a hospital in Sharm El Sheikh, where they underwent surgery. The two most seriously injured resort guests, at the initiative of the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism, were transported by air ambulance to the Nasser clinic in Cairo. Two tourists had to amputate the affected limbs: an elderly woman - a hand and a leg, and a man - both legs.
By order of the police, the beaches of a number of hotels in Naama Bay, Nabq Bay and Shark Bay were closed until further notice. The Egyptian Coast Guard is on the hunt for killer sharks.

Shark caught! It seems that there is nothing to be afraid of, but when you approach the shore or stand on the pantone, it will still seem that there is something ... Although, it is clear that there are sharks in the crane sea and have always been and there have been attacks on people before, but they are rare, there are countries where this happens more often, and still people go there to rest!!! It's like after the explosion in the Moscow metro, it's scary, but you have to go, and now everyone is sitting in the car and staring at each other!
The beaches are still closed until December 3rd!
I urge everyone not to feed the fish, not to throw anything at all, not a drop of food into the sea, so as not to provoke the inhabitants to actions unusual for them!

Yes. The shark was caught. But will there be a new "crazy shark"? Something makes them go crazy. This is a lottery. "Win" (sorry for the black expression) units, but many participate. Be careful, especially with children.

You need to be afraid of sharks when there have been no attacks for a long time. And now the probability of repetition is the smallest.
Unless, of course, they caught that particular shark.

Zlata, so you re-read my words: I write that they caught a shark, even two, but all the same, when you approach the pantone and look down, it seems that there, right there, a toothy mouth will appear ... And what, it's scary .. You have to go to TERRAZINA to swim - now all the people are there, but again ... there have never been fish on TERRAZINA, but today tourists arrived, the beach is full, and it began .... Buns, sausage, sausages - all in the water, look and rbki sailed

The rescue service is absent on the beach in principle. An Italian woman died before our eyes, vacationers tried to help. A man pretending to be a doctor appeared on the beach after 20 minutes. intersny and should take care of themselves.

TERRAZINA - the name of the beach in Sharm near Naama Bay, where there are small and few living creatures, therefore it is usually of little interest

Terrzina in the Old Town. If you stand so that the second gate (those that exit) of the Old Town are on the right, then the Entrance to Terrazina will be opposite to the left. On Terrazina 2 there are always fewer people and fewer locals, it is a little further, if I am not mistaken, across the beach.
If you say that you are relaxing in Luna Sharm, then you can go in for free, and from 5 to 20 dollars, depending on the day.
But news of the day! that all the beaches have already opened and you can swim everywhere, but do not feed the fish!!!

What a trifle. In car accidents, people die by the thousands, but no one gets hysterical because of this. Although yes. DO NOT go to Egypt! There are sharks! (Maybe ticket prices will go down.)

Panic, of course, will not help matters. The question is not whether to go or not to go, but the question is how to behave. I was a week and a half ago in Egypt and was a little shocked by the behavior of vacationers. The first is a feeling of complete ignorance of people where they are going, this is evidenced by the reports here of people who are surprised that there are sharks in the Red Sea. Yes, and a large number of them. And there are also other types of fish that are quite poisonous to humans, and sometimes fatal. And fish, which, even with their small size, can hurt. There are also poisonous corals. I went there knowing about all this, and when I saw how people swim in the sea without masks, not seeing what is under their feet, and how they try to feed the fish, and even from their hands, or even try to take pictures with a bunch of fish, scattering around feed myself, I just didn't have words. And how they leave children in shallow water unattended, but in life jackets, but what's the point.
When fish-surgeons calmly swim there, and I even saw a stingray there. And it can bury anything in the sand. I am not saying - do not go to Egypt, it is amazingly beautiful, and I will go there more than once. but ride being informed and following the elementary rules

"What a trifle." Interesting position. The Egyptians called in international experts to help them understand the ATEPIC behavior of sharks. The beaches are closed again. I agree about car accidents. But the cars one day don't start knocking against each other. There have been cases of shark attacks on people in the Red Sea before, but not in such numbers for a period of time. The beaches were not closed. And about the correct behavior during a shark attack - not all 007 agents and these are not the rules of behavior in the elevator.

Sharks always attacked, but in a week 5 victims in a small segment. As for accidents, if the smart guy who wrote about the accidents found out, for example, that in his city crazy drivers in big trucks rush on the highway every day and ram oncoming cars with a fatal outcome, would he drive onto this road? Smart everyone, daredevils their mother

Alexxx81, dozens, if not hundreds of crazy (drunk, stoned) drivers are running around in my city and yours, believe me. And to die under the wheels of the house is much more likely than from a shark in a resort. Therefore, you should not refuse a trip just because of this. In the end, you can swim in the pools, if it's really scary. Thank God, there are enough of them in every hotel.
