A couple of weeks ago, Humphrey Simmons, an i-banker with Xanthos Investment, caught a shark and found a man's body inside - when the shark unexpectedly burped up a foot.

Simmons, who had been fishing with friends Keith Ferguson and Stanley Bernard on Saturday, suddenly caught an "unusually heavy" Tiger shark on his line.
As soon as the shark reached the surface, Simmons' friend, Bernard, shot him several times in the head. And then something gross happened.

From the Tribune:

“We tied the rope around his tail fin, and pulled him towards the boat. We were going to cut the hook out of his mouth and let him go when he regurgitated a human foot — intact from the knee down. It was now about 10am.”

As soon as they saw the foot, Simmons says, and smelled the "stink" coming from inside the shark's "huge" belly, they knew they had to bring the shark to shore.

"We thought that there might be more bodies inside." There wasn't. There was just one - a body without a head. The body has now been identified as the body of a missing sailor.

I wonder whether he was alive when Mr Tiger shark decided to have a chow down.

Sharks don't swallow whole like snakes. They bite and tear in pieces, then digest. So, yes, he was most likely dead long before that shark or sharks finished him.

This, and then there's that the head was missing...

What's this bit about "shot him several times in the head"? Did the guy shoot his friend, or the shark? Neither makes sense, especially if they were going to release the shark again.
