My favourite shark is the whale shark. What do you have to say about that? |

I think Indians are vulnerable to everything TBH. I don't think africans or australians or americans demonstrate an amount of vulnerability disproportionate to their exposure. If you watch the "beach rescue" shows in australia its ALWAYS indians or middle easterners that run into problems in the ocean, maybe not shark attacks but just dieing from the water itself. Don't know if I posted this before, but there is a case of an Indian guy killed by an American black bear in New Jersey. " Darsh Patel was walking with four friends through the Apshawa Preserve in West Milford in September when the black bear attacked.
The 22-year-old student became the first person to be killed by a bear in New Jersey." nypost.com/2014/11/25/hiker-took-cell-phone-pictures-of-bear-before-deadly-attack/Ironic how an Indian guy got killed by a flighty American animal. |

I mean I don't even like racistly rubbing it in, but it is a medical fact that south asians have the lightest bones and lowest bone mineral density, they may be the longest-civilised people that still exist, and while humans are civilised and become merchants and traders and etc it does impact their anatomy, its a lifestyle change and their body changes in response. That's the story of all evolution and bio-diversity which kind of gets neglected and glossed over. It all comes back to lifestyle, and the demands therein. Hunting and gathering pre-dog is obviously easily the most physically demanding lifestyle for a homo sapien. Those humans had (and kind of have? though no one doesn't have dogs now, there are some who have had them the shortest amount of time, and sure enough their anatomy reflects it) the hardest life with the most demands on their physical ability. Then you have herdsmen/pastoralists, which still lead rugged active lifetyles, and sure enough they are in the middle physiologically. Then you have agriculturalists/croppers, and they are slight and diminished physically, but finally you have the merchant/traders who truly have very low level demands on their physical ability. It is reflected in their bone density and muscle mass to body weight ratio and also reflected in statistics with athletes and etc. Then, on the other side we have wild predators, who are extremely sharply honed to read prey and detect vulnerability. Then we have the "man-eating statistics" with south asia destroying the rest of the world by many multiples. Like 7000% more likely to be killed by predators... (can't remember the exact figure, but have worked it out before and it was crazy). That's not all a coincidence. |

Americans and Australians may be more prone to shark attacks due higher population densities along coastlines and increased time spent in water.

While one of the main factors is that India has a relatively high population density, this Indian guy was singled out by the American black bear. This indicates that he was the weakest member of the group, or at least the predator sensed him as the most vulnerable member. |
