What is the largest shark attack ever recorded?

On November 28, 1942, hundreds of British seamen and Italian prisoners of war were killed by sharks when a German U-boat sank the steamer Nova Scotia off the coast of South Africa.

Nine hundred men were on the ship when it sank; 192 were left when a rescue ship arrived.
