How do you get rid of your love handles and go from skinny-fat to fit? Here's a seven-point plan from Men's Health fitness advisor Craig Ballantyne.
1 Sharks injured 13. 2  The US averages just 19 shark attacks each year and one shark-attack fatality every two years. 3  Meanwhile, in the coastal U.S. states alone, lightning strikes and kills more than 37 people each year.
How many people are attacked each year in Florida? ISAF has lots of stats on its web site related to Florida shark attacks. Florida has about 30 to 40 unprovoked attacks each year. Seems like a lot until you figure that millions of people enter Florida waters each year. Only 30 to 40 attacked out of millions? For me, that puts the issue in perspective. Conclusion: Shark attack is real; shark attack is rare. I recognize its reality, while taking comfort in its rarity.
