    I have been chased off the beach by bees, deer, and fat angry tourists when I can run faster than them.

    I have been chased out of the water by two sharks, I knew they weren't dolphins because a sharks only bend side to side and dolphins can only arch their backs like whales. Anyway, I was out surfing the beach breaks and I saw two sharks about 50' away. When you're out that far 50' seems like 5'......I waited for a good wave, one that I could get one last tube ride......not really, I just got the hell out of there. I think I paddled in faster than the waves.

    Ive been stung by jellyfish at Westwards.
    A seal at Malbu pier chased me for a second.
    A Severed Seal head hit me at esco while there was a dead dolphin beached up like 5 ft away (im guessing there was a shark in the area.)
    Before i found out how to get Angel to stop chasing me i got fracked up by a border collie. lol.
