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

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 :-)

Are you sure?

When you least expect it, you can be attacked by the dreaded... land shark!
