  I recently came upon a 1970's era FARALLON SHARK DART. What a device! 
**********

Got a couple of them with the Hawain sling. Bought it when it came out years
ago. Saw quite a few videos on there use in the Gulf of Mexico. All created
instant incapacitation!

The main claim to fame, I believe, was that the target area was the entire
torso, rather than the tiny brain. (A hard target to hit during an attack,
especially being that if his mouth is open you are unlikley to be in a good
position to hit it anyways)

Never used it thought. But a WHOLE lot easier to get through some countries
customs.

I am not advocating hunting sharks. Though I do believe in appropriate self
defense, To be decided upon at the time. 

Seems to me to be a more reliable device than gun powder in a wet
environment.
