HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE KILLED EACH YEAR BY GW ATTACKS?
There are about 100 shark attacks each year, 30 of which are fatal. Of these 30, the GW can be reasonably assumed to be responsible for perhaps half to a third. Just 10 to 15 people each year out of MILLIONS swimming on the beach.
Incidentally, the next shark in line for killing people is the tiger shark.
