  1. And since there were a couple shark attacks at NY beaches this week, makes me even less likely to get in the water!

  3. Crazy scary actually. I've never seen a large shark IRL in the wild, only at aquariums. Strange because we used to go deep sea fishing quite a bit in the 80s, but that was East Coast. I think now that the water is warming up because of climate change they might be coming in closer to shore. 😱

  4. I'm so fascinated with sharks! I've been watching a great series called When Sharks Attack on Nat Geo Wild this week and it reminds me why I only ever swim in swimming pools!

  5. The title alone is off-putting. Sharks & People... two things that should not mix. Ha.

  11. Holy hell, this is terrifying. In 2010 I took my grandma to Hawaii and we went swimming with sharks. And by 'we' I mean me, and by 'swimming with sharks' I mean I was in a cage attached to the boat. It was mainly Galapagos and Sandbar sharks, but we were still told to not put our hands or feet on/outside the cage. But, being the rebel that I am, I could not resist reaching out and touching one as it swam by. Such an amazing experience, and I still have ten toes, eight fingers, and two thumbs!

  12. Is it awful that I am morbidly curious about this? Though it IS nonfiction (I googled, of course), it also includes many pictures of... well Idk if it is violent shark attacks but I feel like it should be. And then some person petting a shark or something insane. It also makes you think... who the hell takes enough pictures of sharks to make a whole book!?!?

  14. That looks absolutely terrifying, especially land is just out of reach! I'd be paddling for my life!

  15. This is why I don't go in the ocean! When I was a kid I was scared of going into the "dark parts" aka shadows in the pool because I thought sharks could get me there. 😂
