And thus the first signs of the oncoming shark revolt rears its head. Blood was spilled when a diver at Resort World Sentosa's S.E.A. Aquarium literally went face to face with a shark — he had to get treatment at the hospital after it suddenly rammed its snout into his face.
According to The New Paper, he was believed to have dived into the majestic Open Ocean aquarium around 3.30pm to feed the marine creatures when the shark suddenly lashed out at him. No, he did not get eaten — he merely suffered a minor laceration on his left cheek.
The first aid team on-site tended to his injury before calling for an ambulance, which conveyed him to Singapore General Hospital. He has since been discharged after receiving treatment.
It is not known which of the five species of sharks in the aquarium attacked him, but our money's on the hammerhead shark. Them snouts look nasty.
The incident follows just days after Australian pro surfer Mick Fanning managed to fend off and actually walk away after being attacked by a shark during the 2015 World Surf League championships in South Africa.
Meanwhile, it's business as usual at the S.E.A. Aquarium, where the sharks are probably plotting the next attack and discuss the ethics of Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!
