The idea that you should be even a little bit concerned about being bitten by a shark is ludicrous.

OMG......
I just said that the odds are low.
It still does not mean one should want to win that rare lottery.
You want to be bitten by a great white, or bull or tiger? Not me.
Humans get hit by lightning too, and that is also rare. But do you want to be hit by lightning?
No, of course I don’t (about sharks and lightning, I mean. I don’t play lotteries). But neither do I waste time or energy being afraid that these things might happen.
