Open Water Really Can Happen


If you have never seen the movie Open Water, it is about a real life couple who were left behind in the water when their scuba boat took off without them. The couple, who were left off the Australian coast presumably were eaten by sharks. Not a pretty story, but worth watching. Sorry if I ruined the ending. You don't actually get to see them being eaten. It is just assumed. Anyway, the same thing happened again at almost the same place. This time it was just one guy and not a couple. But, he was American. Hmm, maybe Australians are feeding sharks with Americans now. Well, we are probably tasty. The dive boat left the guy behind, but he was saved from death when another boat happened by and he was able to call them. Seriously, how hard is it to count? Oh, well it turns out the guy in charge of counting did not actually count. He just thought everyone got back on board. Yeah. Makes you really think twice about snorkeling or scuba diving.
