Dead Shark Attacks Fisherman!
Monday, June 1st, 2009
A deckhand on a Taiwanese fishing boat suffered some serious shark bite injuries on Sunday while trying to move what he thought was an unconscious shark to a freezer.
The victim, Zhang Sanqian pulled the shark onto the deck where it was electrocuted. Zhang was pulling the shark toward the freezer when it suddenly attacked him… twice! It got him in the knee and tore off large chunks of flesh from the back of his left leg.
Zhang needed 54 stitches to close the wounds but he’ll live.

“but he’ll live” – bummer!
Alright Sharky!!! That’s one for the shark and none for the fisherman!!!
doesn’t sound like the shark was ready to chill
Sometimes you eat the bear and sometimes the bear eats you. Good for the Shark. It is always good to give up one for the road on your way out.
He’ll fortunately live to kill off many more of these sickening creatures.
‘mrniceguy’ is a tool; more people are electrocuted by toasters and are killed by vending machines each year then are killed by sharks.
I guess ignorance is bliss…
An the Asians continue to slaughter sharks for their fins.
What the hell are they doing electrocuting sharks and throwing them live into a freezer? Animal cruelty, much? I don’t care if you want to fish and kill your catch (provided that it is legal to do so and not an endangered species), but WHY put a living creature through that kind of treatment?
I suppose this was a “fin soup” thing, and if so, that happens to be one of the reasons some shark species are endangered. Those Asian countries also have a thing for illegal whaling and dolphin killing- geez, can they respect any marine regulation laws??
