Shark attack
This is horrible. Little details and incredibly unusual and unfortunately a death.
Edit...swimming.

Kind of amazing there's enough fish for all of them to eat.

Fricking cold water.
Wonder if she had a wetsuit. Or the global warming is that crazy.. . .

She must have been a tourist, I don't know anyone from Maine who would swim in the ocean.

Yeah, idk. Sharks are active in the Pacific where it's a 4/3 wetsuit all year. We're in trunks today with multiple offshore days keeping it super warm at the shore. Portland buoy is saying 65 degrees. I'd say we were 70 here as I just got out of the water. This is just really odd. What was more odd was my son just yesterday said that it was not feeling right and felt like a shark attack was going to happen this year. We discussed it as I thought it was an odd statement, but he just felt weird about the year so far. That is just whacked and horrifying! He's in the water more than most people, so it was an interesting statement. We've had an unusual amount of huge Lions Mane jellyfish this year and the stripers were running early. Idk, strange days indeed.
RIP to the woman.

Just because you don't see them doesn't mean they aren't there.

depending on the site you hit you have a 1 in 11.5 million of being attacked by a shark and there is a whole bunch of things more likely to kill youLee Lau - xxx-er is the laziest Asian canuck I know

But most of those ways would appear to be a better way to go. No experience to speak of, just my opinion.

I’d take a quick shark bleed out over a slow avalanche suffocation.
More savage. But less time to think about shit.. . .
