Why you don't swim in flood waters after a hurricane.

This was already snoped out.

The shark is from the photo from the person on the boat with the shark behind them, just photoshopped in.

Hurricane Irene: ‘Photo’ of shark swimming in street is fake - BlogPost - The Washington Post

This is the photo they took the shark from.

I was gonna say... The only shark I was aware of having that kind of fresh water ability was the Bull Shark and that isn't a Bull. Looks like a White but a "reduced" White shark.

Not to mention that that shark would have to be about 5 inches tall in order to swim in water that shallow.

Well, actually, y'see, that's not a canoe, that's a kayak... and, well, y'see, the term is 'canoeist', not 'canoer'...

Cool pic but the concrete dividing K rail gave it away. Sharks only affect those that go in the water, but the Cougars have invaded every wrinkle room in every state. I worry much more about them.

In southern Texas we don't swim in flood water because there's poo in there.

Yes, or the fact that the pic was taken from inside a pickup truck would mean there was an ocean-going pickup.

Reminds me of a videochop that did the rounds on YouTube years ago involving an orca breaching and landing on a canoeist.
