    Sad that horrible deaths come to such wonderful people because while he died doing what he loved, dying from a shark attack is unsettling for me to digest. God rest his precious soul.

    That's ridiculous about rescue efforts 2:17. He was surfing over a deep area and probably got hit by a white shark who ambush prey from below. Ocean Ramsey just posted today - limit your paddling over deep water. Too bad no-one was with Tamayo to help! What a legend.

    i liked learning about the proven statistics....too bad he didnt survive this time because based on the odds he probably wouldnt have been attacked by another shark for about 49 more yrs ! and now i know if your ever out surfing in Hawaii with anyone over age 50 best send them in unless they have already been attacked by a shark more recently...

He lost an arm n limb got attacked multiple times. I'm gonna go for a 4 meter Tiger. Also shark attacks aren't rare in Hawaii
