    No, they like actually don’t.

    The shark attacks on record have happened because for some reason or other the animal mistook the human for a prey species, or was provoked in some way. And even then, statistically speaking, shark-on-human attacks basically don’t happen.

    In actuality, sharks will generally just ignore human swimmers and divers. Most of the time we neither look nor smell like food to them.
