South Korea's Busan Metropolitan City Fire Department is buying and installing electric Shark repelling devices around Haeundae Beach in Busan this summer. Listen to this:

"Though sharks have never appeared on Haeundae Beach, we adopted the device because violent sharks might come near the beach as global warming increases the sea temperature."

Like most people who watch too much television, it is the Great Whites they fear the most. *sigh* Great Whites are generally a cold water species. There have only been 5 Shark jams in Korea since 1981, none at Haeundae Beach. There has never even been a single Shark sighting at Haeundae Beach. So why is the Busan Metropolitan City Fire Department installing these things? I guess they are bored...and overfunded.

Ooooga Boooga! Sharks are so scary...even when they aren't there. And if we all don't stop with the Shark Fin Soup Bullshit, soon they won't be there. Watch this nonsense:

Now we know why they won't stop Shark-finning.
