the story is in synch with the headline. It's a silly headline but it's essentially accurate.

and the knowledge that behind many Florida hotels you usually find some kind of open deck area and pool. I mean, why mention that it was behind a hotel when almost every inch of beach along Florida is lined with hotels?

A man out for a swim, get his leg chomped by a shark, would have been more accurate.
