This is horrible. And, yes, I am totally freaked out. I swim in this area all the time as do my kids.

A month before I swam the Golden Gate Bridge Swim the first time in 1997, some poor surfer was bitten in half off his surf board off Pacific beach. They never found him, but his board washed up on shore with a 36 inch bite taken out of the board----I never heard the story until the morning of the swim when were lined up to go into the water---which made for some interesting thoughts during the crossing.
