A young woman was attacked by a shark today in the Intercoastal Waterway. She was quickly rescued by her companions, but apparently she received a terrible leg wound, although the story on the evening news reported surgeons were able to save the leg.
Her friends must have taken some cell phone video of her leg, although the wound was so "graphic" the tv station chose to blur it out to spare our tender sensibilities. So all the tv viewer saw was an image slowly pannining her leg from bikini to ankle, but the wound could not be seen at all, except as a bright red oval blur on her calf. Why bother? They could have just as easily photoshopped some stock footage and gotten the same result..
Still, from what I could see of it, it was a pretty nice leg. I'm glad they were able to save it.
