Shark attacks in Singapore
-
Saw this in Science Centre website. One person asked how many shark attacks are there in Singapore, and apparently, there are 5.
The last fatal one happened in 1954.

don't worry .... the last shark I saw in Singapore waters, it was a pathetic little dogfish on a night dive ... about 45cm long .....and it was trying to hide from me ! ...
with the amount of pollution in singapore waters ... you'd be lucky to see any fishies at all ... -
