Giant Aquarium Shark Tank Explodes...Injures Elderly Woman
 

Woman Sues Over Burst Shark Tank

The aquarium in Sydney is one of the largest in the world

Sydney, Australia - An Australian woman is suing Sydney Aquarium after a giant exhibition tank exploded, showering her with glass - and sharks.

The accident left Hazel Swinden, 61, in chest-high water with a badly gashed ankle caused by flying debris.

She claims to have suffered post-traumatic stress as a result.

One moment Ms Swinden was admiring the reef sharks at Sydney Aquarium and the next she was surrounded by them with blood pouring from a deep cut.

A glass tank had shattered, dumping thousands of litres of water on top of her.

The woman's lawyer has told a Sydney court how she was submerged for several seconds and could feel the sharks brushing past her.

She claims that acute stress forced her to give up her job as a sales assistant.

The drama took place several years ago but has only now reached court, where the victim is seeking unspecified damages.

She works in sales? Well shit, she must work around sharks every day!

BA DUM BUM

eh?

Ehhhhh?

I just wonder why she wasn't eaten...
