Since the country is gripped with "Shark Week" fever, check out the luck on Erik Norrie.

Erik is a fisherman who was on vacation in the Bahamas, when he was attacked by a shark, who took a Jaws sized bite out of his leg.

That's bad enough, but Erik's misfortune does not stop there, in fact, he is a walking booby trap.

In additon to the shark bite, Erik has been struck by lightning, bitten by a rattlesnake and attacked by monkeys...Yes, I said monkeys.

The next time I whine about something trivial, I will remember Erik. However Erik, on your next vacation, stay inside and read or good book or two, or catch up on "Breaking Bad", but do it indoors.
