Book excerpt: Shark! The word commands immediate attention. Put the two words Great White in front of Shark & the reaction is gut-level fear. The Great White Shark is the undisputed master of two-thirds of the planet. No other creature generates quite so much horror. Every time a surfer enters the Great White's domain, he or she risks attack by Nature's most fearsome predator. But the actual odds that a surfer, swimmer or diver will be assaulted by any kind of shark are estimated to be only one in four million. Surfer Kenny Doudt is lucky to be alive. Doudt was attacked by a fifteen-foot, three-thousand-pound female Great White Shark off the north coast of Oregon in November, 1979. The attack was the northern-most recorded attack in the world. Shark experts calculated Doudt's odds for survival at one in one-hundred-fifty million. A team of world-famous surgeons called Doudt's injuries "the worst mutilation of an upper torso" they had ever seen.
