Pretty impressive that the sharks are polite enough to avoid humans because it’s Australia day. Surely an influx of people on a public holiday that’s really hot couldn’t turn out badly.
Literally the plot of Jaws
Chief Brody is pulling his hair out!
Hey! I’ve seen this one!
Manly already closed again
We’ve all seen this film before.
Sums up our selfish mentality that despite known risks and increased shark activity, we must have the beaches open for this sacrilegious Australia Day long weekend.
Oh yes, it’s the most Australian thing banning
I remember this movie! Show it to your kids the night before you hit the beach.
Looks like meat is back on the menu boys!
I recognise this plot from Jaws.
NT SLSCs watching on from their beaches that are closed for up to 6mths of the year thanks to box jellyfish.
I think I’ve seen this film before???
Did they consult with the Sharks first not to attack anybody this long weekend?
You’re gonna need a bigger boat
Police “we can’t blame the Pro-palestinian protests and that’s all we can do”
Clearly the mayor has not seen Jaws
This feels very Jawsy to me. Mayor insists the beaches are open for the big long weekend holiday.
im surprised the lifeguards dont have a set of drones, one one is needed to watch a small area of water to check for sharks
Chief, Sydney is a summer town!….
a boy just fucking died
It’s like they have never seen jaws
