I’ve been told that the most sensitive part of a shark is the tip of its snout and that landing a hard blow there should break it’s hold, too.

I’ve been told that the most sensitive part of a shark is the tip of its snout and that landing a hard blow there should break it’s hold, too. I had always heard that too - now, I read that a 61 year old man successfully escaped by punching a shark's gills...
My technique has been to stay dry. Sharks only attack when you're wet. :) :P

From now on, instead of saying “Achilles heel”, everyone say “Shark’s gill”.

I’m not saying that he was an accomplice of Jean Harris as a young medical student 38 years ago, and that this is her way of trying to silence him from the grave. Because even if I was saying that, I couldn’t say that I was saying that. You see what I’m saying?

I’ve always suggested to not go in past your ankles.
This guy was close to shore, but in 8’ - 10’ deep water.
WAY past ankle deep :-)
