I seriously doubt that she was taken by a tiger shark! I've seen several tigers surfing in Hawaii & even had a friend attacked by one but a shark of that size couldn't just take a swimmer with no trace. Something doesn't sound right about this story.

Hmm I'm not buying a truth where the shark eats a woman without leaving blood and debris. Some fin smells fishy. I'm sure internet investigators will love sinking their teeth into it.

Someone’s missing and their loved ones don’t know if they’re alive and you’re typing puns with two thumbs.

It sounds like the shark was circling them since the husband saw it several times before swimming back to shore. Maybe his wife wandered far enough away that he didn't notice anything? I'm not actually sure how obvious it is when someone is attacked by a shark.

Another source says they did find part of a bathing suit as well as a snorkel set. Maybe they called off the search when they confirmed that the shark existed?

So, a shark is circling your wife & you decide to swim back to shore without knowing where she is and if she is safe? I don't know about you but unless I really didn't care about my wife or whomever, I am not leaving unless I know I cannot do anything to help.
