ACTIVITY: Surfing CASE: GSAF 2002.07.09.a DATE: Tuesday July 9, 2002 LOCATION: The attack took place at Jaboatão of the Guararapes, city of the region metropolitan of Recife Piedade Beach in Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil. NAME: Mário César Carneiro da Silva DESCRIPTION: He is a 22-year-old male. BACKGROUND WEATHER: At 15h00, the sky was mostly cloudy, visibility was 6.2 miles [10 km]. Air temperature was 82.4°F [28°C], dew point was 69.8°F [21°C]. humidity 66%, sea level pressure was 30.01 inches [1016 hPa, and wind direction was ESE at 11.5 mph [18.5 km/h]. It had rained throughout the early morning hours. MOON PHASE: New Moon ENVIRONMENT: Favio Hazin, who has been investigating shark attacks in Recife, notes that more than half of the shark attacks there have occurred between July and September when the risk increases due to the food chains, rains and the start or close of the sharks’ breeding season. “Rains along the coast and the new moon, when the amplitude of the tide increases, also increases the risk,” said Hazin who also reports that 80% of the known attacks in the last decade occurred during a new or full moon. This incident took place in the high-risk area where water sports are banned, an area which extends from the port of Suape to the port of Recife. DISTANCE FROM SHORE: 15 metres TIME: 15h00 NARRATIVE: Mário César Carneiro da Silva was paddling out to where the waves were breaking 50 metres from shore when he was bitten by the shark. “I didn't see it coming,” he said. “I felt a strong pressure on my arm and when I looked there was a lot of blood in the water. I tried to punch him, but he took my arm and pulled me into the water. Eventually, I wrenched myself free and my hand was gone. A big wave pushed me in to shore.” Another surfer, 18-year-old Márcio Pereira, said two other people were in the sea when Mario was bitten. “Suddenly, Mario laid on the board and started screaming 'help, shark, shark' and showed his arm.” INJURY: His right hand was severed three centimetres above the wrist. FIRST AID: A wave brought the injured surfer and his board into waist-deep water, where Márcio took off his shirt to use as a tourniquet. A truck passing at the time took the injured man to the hospital. TREATMENT: The patient was taken by truck to Hospital da Aeronáutica. Due to the serious nature of the injury, he was transferred to Restauracao Hospital (HR) in Recife, © Global Shark Accident File, 2002. All rights reserved.

The attending physician, Dr Gustavo Menalau, reports the edges of the wound are indicative of a crush injury. It is expected that he will remain hospitalized for three days. SPECIES INVOLVED: It was thought that a bull shark or tiger shark was involved. NOTES: On July 12th, Brazilian firemen burned 66 surfboards to warn people against violating the ban on surfing in waters around Recife where sharks have killed at least 11 people in the past decade. The fire department confiscates about 250 boards a year. Surfers can get their boards back for a fee of 10 reals (dirs 3.5) for each day they remain at the deposit, and unclaimed boards are burned after one month. “The surfers ignore the ruling and surf far from the shore behind the reefs. That’s exactly the area where the shark attacks happen,” said fire brigade spokesman Cap. Valdy Oliverra. In a BBC interview in 2004, Mário César Carneiro da Silva said that he would like to surf again one day. “I'd need a better prosthetic arm. Maybe a mechanical one which allows hand movement. And of course, I would have to be somewhere that, categorically, does not have sharks.” In January, the body of a fisherman was found at Paiva, 30 km from Recife, with shark bites. That case is still under investigation.

Estudante tem a mão arrancada em ataque de tubarão em PE O estudante Mário Cesar Carneiro da Silva, 22, teve a mão direita arrancada nesta terça-feira por um tubarão quando surfava na praia de Piedade, em Jaboatão dos Guararapes, município da região metropolitana de Recife (PE). O ataque ocorreu por volta das 15h30. Silva contou aos médicos que estava deitado sobre a prancha, remando para alcançar as ondas a cerca de 50 metros da areia, quando sentiu uma "pressão forte" no braço direito. O surfista afirmou que viu "muito sangue" na água e, quando levantou o braço, já estava sem a mão. Ele foi levado por um amigo ao Hospital da Restauração, em Recife. Segundo o médico-chefe da emergência, Gustavo Menelau, 33, Silva chegou consciente, às 16h10, com uma camisa enrolada no ferimento. No setor, recebeu soro, passou pelo raio-x e foi encaminhado ao bloco cirúrgico. De acordo com o médico, o tubarão arrancou a mão do surfista três centímetros acima do pulso. As bordas do ferimento, disse, apresentavam sinais de esmagamento pela pressão da mordida. Menelau afirmou que o rapaz não corre risco de morte e que deverá ter alta médica em 48 horas. O ataque de hoje foi o 34º registrado pela UFPE (Universidade Federal de Pernambuco) no Estado desde 1992. Um outro caso suspeito ocorrido em janeiro deste ano ainda depende de confirmação. O corpo de um pescador foi encontrado na praia do Paiva, a 30 km de Recife, com várias mordidas. Para o especialista em tubarões da universidade, Fábio Hazin, as evidências sobre a ocorrência de hoje não deixam dúvidas sobre a autoria do ataque. Segundo ele, "mais da metade" das vítimas de tubarões no Estado foram atacadas entre julho e setembro, quando o risco aumenta devido às correntes marítimas, às chuvas e à aproximação das fêmeas para procriação. "Além disso, as chuvas no litoral e a proximidade da lua nova, quando a amplitude da maré aumenta, também favorecem os ataques", disse Hazin. De acordo com o especialista, 80% das ocorrências registradas nos últimos dez anos em Pernambuco aconteceram em períodos de lua nova ou cheia. O surfista estava em área considerada de risco, onde a prática de esportes aquáticos é proibida. A região propensa a ataques tem cerca de 35 quilômetros e vai do porto de Suape, no município do Cabo de Santo Agostinho, até o porto de Recife.

The surfer said he saw "a lot of blood" in the water and, when he raised his arm, was already without the hand. He was taken by a friend to the Hospital of the Restoration, in Recife. According to the chief doctor of the emergency, Gustavo Menelaus, 33, Silva was aware, at 16.10 with a shirt wrapped around a wound. In industry, received saline, passed through the x-ray and was referred to the operating theater. According to the doctor, the shark pulled the surfer's hand three inches above the wrist. The edges of the wound, he said, showed signs of crushing pressure of the bite. Menelaus said the boy is not at risk of death and must have medical release within 48 hours. The attack today was the 34th recorded by UFPE (Universidade Federal de Pernambuco) in the State since 1992. Another suspected case occurred in January this year still depends on confirmation. The body of a fisherman was found at the beach Paiva, 30 km from Recife, with several bites. For the expert in sharks University, Fabio Hazin, the evidence on the occurrence of today leave no doubt about the authorship of the attack. He said "more than half" of the victims of sharks in the state were attacked between July and September, when the risk increases by ocean currents, the rains and the approximation of the females for breeding. "Moreover, the rains on the coast and the proximity of the new moon, when the tidal height increases, also favor the attacks," said Hazin. According to the expert, 80% of cases registered in the last ten years in Pernambuco occurred in periods of new moon or full moon. The surfer was in that area of risk, where water sports are prohibited. The region is prone to attack about 35 miles and runs from the port of Suape, in the municipality of Cabo de Santo Agostinho, to the port of Recife.

Surfista atacado por tubarão O estudante estava surfando, ontem, na Praia de Piedade, em Jaboatão dos Guararapes. . Ele perdeu a mão ea metade do antebraço direito. O estudante Mário César Carneiro da Silva, 22 anos, foi atacado ontem à tarde por um tubarão quando surfava na Praia de Piedade, em Jaboatão dos Guararapes.

Ele não corre risco de morrer e deve ter alta em 48 horas. O ataque de tubarão a Mário é o primeiro deste ano em Pernambuco eo 42º registrado nos últimos 10 anos no litoral do Estado, segundo o Corpo de Bombeiros. O último ocorreu no dia 3 de março de 2001, em Boa Viagem, no Recife, e resultou na morte do estudante Carlos Alberto Brasileiro, 19 anos. Até agora, 11 pessoas morreram atacadas por tubarão. O surfista Márcio Pereira, 18, que estava na Praia de Piedade, foi o primeiro a socorrer o amigo. “Era perto de 15h. Ele estava com mais duas pessoas no mar, com a água encobrindo os dois. . De repente, Mário se deitou na prancha e começou a gritar 'socorro, tubarão, tubarão' ea mostrar o braço. Uma onda mais forte trouxe a prancha para o raso, com a água batendo na cintura del. Aí corri pra ajudar. Then ran to help. Tirei minha camisa e amarrei em seu braço”, relatou. Segundo ele, enquanto esperava ser socorrido, Mário, tremendo, olhava o braço e dizia que estava fraco e perdendo a visão. “Saí pedindo socorro. Um caminhão que passava na hora levou meu amigo para o Hospital da Aeronáutica”, contou Márcio. Por causa da gravidade do ferimento, ele foi transferido para o HR. O autônomo Carlos Pedro Xavier, que viu o rapaz ser socorrido, disse que onde ele surfava, na frente do Hospital da Aeronáutica, aparece muito tubarão, quando chove. O barraqueiro João Inácio da Silva, que vende lanche no local, confirmou.” Há oito anos trabalho por aqui e nunca tomei um banho de mar nesse trecho por causa dos tubarões.” O estudante deu entrada no HR às 16h10. O cirurgião-geral Gustavo Menelau, chefe da emergência, informou que Mário chegou consciente, contando que tinha sido mordido por um tubarão. “Ele disse que estava surfando quando sentiu uma pressão no braço " Depois já viu o sangue escorrendo”, comentou o médico. O rapaz entrou imediatamente no bloco cirúrgico. A operação terminou por volta das 19h e ele foi levado para a sala de recuperação. Os irmãos Marcos e Lourdes foram os primeiros a chegar no HR. Marcos evitou falar com a imprensa e não quis ser fotografado. Lourdes contou que a família sempre pedia a Mário para não surfar onde tem tubarão. “Mas ele não queria saber.” Os pais, que apareceram às 17h50 no hospital, contaram a mesma coisa. “Vivia dizendo pra ele não surfar nessas praias, mas ele respondia que o surfe é a vida dele”, disse a mãe, Valdomira Carneiro da Silva. Evangélica, ela contou que sempre orou muito para o filho deixar de surfar, o que faz desde os 13 anos. “Há uns três anos, quando o surfe foi proibido nessas praias daqui, tomaram a prancha dele. Fiquei satisfeita. Mas ele voltou a surfar em Porto de Galinhas”, relembrou. Segundo ela, se fosse obediente, Mário não teria sido atacado por tubarão. “Meu filho não escutava conselho. E eu não podia fazer nada, a não ser orar, porque ele já tem 22 anos. Quero ver agora como vai ser para usar o computador e tocar o violão, que adora”, lamentou.

Surfer Márcio Pereira, 18, who was in Praia de Piedade, was the first to rescue his friend. "It was close to 15h. He was with two people at sea, with water covering them. Suddenly, Mario laid on the board and started screaming 'help, shark, shark' and show the arm. A stronger wave brought the board to the shallow, with water lapping at his waist. I took off my shirt and tied his arm, "he reported. He said while waiting to be rescued, Mario, trembling, looked at the arm and said she was weak and losing vision. "I went for help.. A truck passing at the time took my friend to the Hospital of the Air Force, "said Márcio. Because of the severity of the injury, he was transferred to the HR. The standalone Carlos Pedro Xavier, who saw the boy being rescued, said that where he was surfing in front of the Hospital of the Air Force, appears very shark, when it rains.

Marcos avoided talking to the press and declined to be photographed. Lourdes told that the family has asked not to Mario where you surf shark. "But he did not know." Parents, who appeared at 17.50 in the hospital, told the same thing. "He was always telling him not to surf on these shores, but he responded that surfing is his life, "said the mother, Valdomir Carneiro da Silva. Evangelical, she said she always prayed a lot for the child to stop surfing, which makes the 13 years since. "About three years ago, when surfing these beaches was banned here, the board took it. I was pleased. But he came back to surf in Porto de Galinhas," he recalled. © Global Shark Accident File, 2002. All rights reserved.

"My son does not listen to advice. And I could not do anything except pray, because he is 22 years. I see now how it will be to use the computer and play the guitar, he loves," she lamented. The surfer is a supplement to school, not working and living in Massaranduba, dos Guararapes. His father, Narciso Vitalino da Silva, was more relaxed because the child is out of danger.

Surfing is forbidden on some 45 miles (70 kilometers) of shark-infested water around Recife, 1,150 miles (1,870 kilometers) northeast of Rio de Janeiro. But that hasn’t stopped the surfers — or the attacks. “The surfers ignore the ruling and surf far from the shore behind the reefs. That’s exactly the area where the shark attacks happen,” fire brigade spokesman Cap. Valdy Oliverra told the Associated Press by telephone. To enforce the ban, the fire department confiscates about 250 boards a year. Surfers can get their boards back for a fee of 10 reals (dirs 3.5) for each day they remain at the deposit, and unclaimed boards are burned after one month. According to a study by a local university, some 40 major shark attacks have been registered around Recife since 1992, and at least 11 of them have been fatal. The latest encounter was on July 10, when Mario Cesar Carneiro de Silva was attacked while surfing off Recife’s Piedade beach. Lifeguards pulled him out, but de Silva lost his right hand in the attack. Thursday, July 18, 2002 SOURCE: Marcelo Szpilman, page 142 © Global Shark Accident File, 2002. All rights reserved.
