fatality at elphinstone

[WS007]

A diving accident happened in Egypt at Elphinstone and one diver was killed. A day later, when other divers were recovering the mortal remains a tiger shark, that seemingly was out for the prey, made problems:

‘Tiger shark didn’t kill Red Sea diver’

scuba diver whose body was recovered from a Red Sea site having sustained a shark-bite appears to have drowned before the shark came across him.

Sad, i wonder what happened and why his buddy didnt see it.


But why is elphinestone locked, when a tiger is there? There are spots worldwide, where its possible to dive with tigersharks.

Btw thats the boat i was planning to go to elphinestone in a few weeks

But why is elphinestone locked

I think that's a standard procedure in Egypt in the event of a diving accident.

Didn't they also close after a white tip attack or two?
