You probably know what's coming next.
Should I have genuine concerns about having my leg ripped off by a shark, while in the sea? I want to start getting some open water swims in, but being in FL., I'm a bit nervous about it.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Peace...

We swim in their living room,...not too much of a surprise when one of us is dealt with.
Very true. When we enter the ocean we also immediately enter the food chain.
Here's a Mexican newspaper photo of that surfers leg, no wonder he died. I don't think they'd run photos like that in our newspapers...

I just checked the ISAF, for anyone doing the Bonaire Eco Swim there has only been 2 recorded shark attacks (non-fatal) in the Netherland Antilles since the year 1749. I think we are safe. :-)
