Skiing is relatively safe as long as you stay on the groomers. If you're going off-piste you encounter the unpredictability of nature.

Like I said, it's not like she's covering herself in blood and freshly cut steaks before jumping in. She's interested in swimming with some pretty majestic creatures, and I'm sure she's considered all the risks.
Speak the truth, even if your voice shakes.

I've not read through all the comments, but most sharks never go back for the kill, as people are not their normal pray. The reason why some attacks are fatal is because the bite is fatal. I use to study a lot about sharks, one of my favourite animals, as they fascinate me, and still a lot isn't known about them.
There are three known dangerous sharks, the Great White, the Tiger shark and the Bull shark, the Great White being the dangerous, and only because there are more fatal attack from Great Whites, and only because of their great size. The tiger shark will eat just about anything. The bull shark, will adventure into fresh waters, swimming up rivers.
