Swimming with Sharks

This is truly a tragic story:

The water was clear and there was no indication of danger when a 13-year-old surfing star went out on the waves with her best friend and her friend's father.

But while Bethany Hamilton was lying on her board off Kauai's North Shore, a shark bit once and then disappeared, taking off her left arm just below the shoulder.

Gruesome. But take heart: if they find that shark, I'll bet they sue the hell out of it.
