| O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00  | This is one amazing story. PENSACOLA, Fla. — An 8-year-old boy whose arm was reattached after a shark attack developed kidney problems but was improving Monday, a surgeon said. "He's stable and making some progress," Jack Tyson told the NBC's Today show. Jessie Arbogast of Ocean Springs, Miss., was in critical but stable condition Monday after dialysis, officials at Sacred Heart Children's Hospital said. Jessie was moved to Sacred Heart because Baptist Hospital, where surgeons reattached his arm, is not equipped to treat kidney failure, Sacred Heart spokesman Clay DeStefano said. The boy was attacked Friday evening while playing in knee-deep water at Gulf Islands National Seashore near Fort Pickens in the Florida Panhandle. His uncle wrestled the 7-foot-long bull shark to shore. "He's a big guy. He got hold of it and tossed it ashore," District Ranger Supervisor John Bandurski said. Ranger Jared Klein then shot the shark four times with a 9mm pistol and pried its jaw open with a police baton. Volunteer firefighter Tony Thomas used a clamp to pull the boy's severed arm out of the shark's gullet. The boy had no pulse and no blood pressure when he was flown to Baptist Hospital about 30 minutes after the attack, Tyson said. "He had essentially lost all of his blood," Tyson said. "He had bled out." Ian Rogers, the plastic surgeon who helped reattach the arm, had said he was hopeful the boy could regain near normal use of his arm in 12 to 18 months, with extensive therapy. In addition to losing his arm, the boy lost a large section of muscle on his right thigh. .....pulled the bullshark out of the water...are you kidding me. This man has balls the size of canteloupes.  | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Jun. 01 | I saw this story this morning on Good Morning America when I was getting ready for work. most people don't know that most shark attacks happen in less than 4 feet of water. If you showed everyone all the sharks swimming off the shore in NJ, (You can see them in an airplane) no one would ever go in the water. DasDoomper  | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | that must have been a real intense thing to witness. and the guy must be extremely strong to wrestle a shark to shore.  This message was edited by Rone on 7-9-01 @ 11:49 AM | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: Jun. 01 | quote: Not really. Grab them by the tail and pull it backwards towards you. Sharks have to keep swimming forward or pump their gills to breath. If they were pulled backwards, they drown. They can't shut their gills like other fish can. The adrenaline rush he had at the time probably helped too.

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00 | It says he wrestled it. I think he somehow grabbed it behind it's 2 side fins and pushed it to shore. As far as if it was my nephew, I say I would do it....but who knows being in that sitiuation. Much respect for the Uncle though, hopefully he'll get a little fame or fortune from it. quote: Real funny Ftard.:) This message was edited by Drunken GW on 7-9-01 @ 12:44 PM | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Nov. 00 | I've watched too many episodes of Shark Week on the Discovery Channel. I'll save you all the speech on why the vast majority of sharks are harmless. Know people who scuba dive and have swam right next to some big ones.

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00 | Fellows, let's be reasonable, huh? This is not the time or the place to perform some kind of a half-assed autopsy on a fish... And I'm not going to stand here and see that thing cut open and see that little Arbogast arm spill out all over the dock!

| Psychopath Registered: Jun. 01 | DGW, unfortunately this happens a lot down here. Every week either someone is bitten by a shark or a kid drowns in a backyard pool. Although not many wrestle the sharks, people have been foolish enough to try and catch the gators that roam any area that is canal fed. This message was edited by Ahlexus on 7-9-01 @ 3:51 PM | ||||
