Although the aquatic sports lovers had a nasty bite by the shark until so terrible, they still not blame to the sharks. They claimed that this was only a natural habitat. But, they learnt that not to go to the deep sea in the evening. In the awkward situation, they still can say out such a word! I admire their courage and boldness. They were grateful that they still alive!
