Only One Human Fatality from Shark Attacks in 2007
- Its quite spectacular that for the hundreds of millions of people worldwide spending hundreds of millions of hours in the water in activities that are often very provocative to sharks, such as surfing, there is only one [shark attack] incident [in 2007] resulting in a fatality." - quote from George Burgess, director of the International Shark Attack File; quote appeared in this UnderwaterTimes.com article.
