概要
In December 1957, the South Coast of Natal was full of families on holiday. Hotels packed. Beaches busy. The Indian Ocean warm and green.
Then nine people were attacked by sharks. Six of them died.
Jess takes Liz through Black December, the most catastrophic shark event in South African history. We cover the victims, the science of how sharks actually hunt (yes, they can feel your heartbeat), why the conditions that December were so catastrophically perfect, and the government response that involved depth charges, hand grenades, and a Navy destroyer making everything dramatically worse.
We also talk about why the sharks were never really the enemy.
Content note: graphic injury descriptions. Listener discretion advised.
THE NINE:
Robert Wherley, Allan Green, Vernon James Berry, Donald Webster, Julia Painting, the unnamed man at MaKakatana River, Derryck Garth Prinsloo, Nicholas Badenhorst and Fay Jones Bester. Their names deserved to be said.
