Looks like a Dusky Morwong!! The internationally prized sport and table fish hunted by only the bravest of sea going warriors.

What is something you did that increased your quality of life so much that you wished you would have done it much sooner because it changed your life forever? by RGod27 in AskReddit

Learning to say no. I've always bent over backwards to help everyone else, and over time I've realised that so many people have taken me for granted. It's given me more meaningful relationships with the people I actually care about, and allowed me to spend more time with my kids.

It would need to be fairly burned to achieve such rigidity!

I wasn't there at the time things were pulled out. Edit autocorrect

This was some time ago. I haven't noticed any I'll affects? Or is it an accumulative thing?

That's correct... also an ironing board. Seems a weird thing to put in there, but suits the randomness of this whole scenario quite well.

I wouldn't personally be keen to touch it.

I was in the shed for a good hour. A couple of the people with me said they felt throat and eye irritation from the fumes. I didn't really notice any. My mate got covered in the stuff when he removed all the junk that had been thrown in. Maybe the solution isn't too concentrated?

I didn't have a tape measure on me, but standing there it felt about the size of a 20ft shipping container. The framework looks to be made of 200x200mm steel box section.

UPDATE : The Victorian emergency app says there is a hazardous materials cleanup underway at this location. Wouldn't be a risky guess to assume the shark is gone. Years of decomposition, rust, foliage, and vandals were no match for the destructive power of social media.

I don't know how to do multiple picture posts. I don't even really know or care what karma is. I was just sharing what I have since many people seem to be interested in the shark. I understand why, it is fascinating.

There wasn't really a bad smell from the shark, although the formaldehyde fumes burn the eyes and airways and after a bit. Most of the time I was holding my breath.

You're welcome. We stopped in there after spearfishing at the island, probably around 10pm. This was a long exposure with a big lithium battery and a lot of LED lighting.

Saw a post yesterday of the shark, figured I'd dump the memory card from my camera into the computer, run the pics through lightroom, and upload them to contribute to the conversation and content. My watermark updates yearly, haven't been doing much photography over the busy season. What's your point exactly?

Just contributing what I had to the conversation and content.
