I live on the coast, but since Jaws came out, back when I was a kid, I cant go into the ocean above my knees.
Sharks are not something you fuck with.
Whenever I watch free divers who swim with any kind of shark, outside of whale sharks, I cringe.
I always think, "Better you than me."
Nonsense. Sharks are virtually harmless. It's almost impossible to get bitten by a shark, even if you provoke it.

It is true that shark attacks on humans are very rare. But they still happen, and most of the time it is because the shark confuses you for food.
It still does not matter to me. Sharks big enough have very powerful jaws and regardless of mistaken identity or provocation, you don't want to get bitten by them.
The odds are not the issue. Sharks are still not something humans should fuck with.
