Drunk Man Is Killed By Shark When He Went To Relieve Himself In The Water's Of Brazil

A shark attacked and killed a drunk man who stepped into the ocean to relieve himself in Brazil, according to local reports.

The incident happened around 2 p.m. Saturday on a beach in Jaboatao dos Guararapes, a city on the eastern edge of the country.

Marcelo Rocha Santos, 51, had been drinking there with a friend when he felt the need to urinate, so he waded out into the water to do so.

Ademir Sebastiao da Silva, who was also at the beach, says he went out with Santos to relieve himself at the same time.

“As the beach has no bathroom, I went into the sea to pee,” he said. “I was beside him with the water up to our waists.”

That’s when the shark attacked, pulling Santos under in a bloody struggle that ended with the victim losing consciousness.

“There was a lot of blood in the water,” said Edriano Gomes, who was at the beach with da Silva during the attack.

Santos’ friends ultimately jumped in and pulled him back to shore.

Graphic photos posted online show that Santos lost part of his arm and a chunk of his leg in the attack.

He was rushed to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
