Considering the location and the cold water there, and that BIG ass dorsal fin, I'm thinking Great White.

Does anyone know  what  kind  of  shark  it  was ?
A big one with sharp teeth

Aussies are a tough bunch. Mick clearly won the final.

That's what I think, too, although at the same time it sounds odd to say that possibly the only person on earth who got attacked by a shark today is lucky.

Is this the unedited livefeed? cause it looks like it took them less than 40 seconds from the start of the attack to get him out of the water and on a sled, which is pretty damn impressive.

Yes but those 40 are very long.  Einstein would have described the theory of relativity for Mick calling those seconds hours.

Again I would ask all how their swim sprint training is going.  You may not ever use it. It might not even help if you were in that situation but how would it feel to be 'flat footed' in that instance and not be able to try?

PBill 50 meters that's all.

I swam a sub 45 100.free  ack in the day.  I can still swim sub 50 off.the wall for 100.  Watching him move through water, I would have been smoked by that kid,,,hahahaha

He should just quit pro.surfing, he wins,  he is a winner of life, suck.that Kelly.  Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahhahahaahhaa.

Pro.surfing is on the twilight side of its hay days, if this would have went differently, giant pool of blood on live tv, woohoo,,line ups would be empty.  Im.glad it didn't go.go.that way.  I have a Micktory truckers hat,,,I'm wearing that thing everyday for.the rest of my life...hahaha
