remember that part in Jaws when Quint was telling the story about that secret naval WWII mission where the boat got torpedoed and sank, and the majority of the men aboard died from shark attacks?
yeah, that's the U.S.S. Indianapolis.
worst single at-sea loss of life in U.S. naval history

To be on topic, Shark Week is the tits. The Jaws episode of Mythbusters was quite entertaining.

I loath "OMG" but, OMG go read about it. It's the most gruesome, horrifying story ever. It's like the holocost, but with SHARKS. Basically, a ship on a secret mission sank, and no one knew about it because, well, it was secret. So for four days hundreds of sailers went crazy from dehydration while being devoured by sharks before someone found them.
Shark Week is great and all, but I miss Flying Shark Vs. Flying Crocodile week on Adult Swim. "In a battle in which there can be no winners...WHO WILL WIN?? Questions will be destroyed...WITH ANSWERS!!"
