Never go surfing in a suit that makes you look like a seal..................

Miraculously, Ross escaped without a scratch. Its actually not that surprising. Most sharks attack out of a case of mistaken identity. Once they realize a surfer isn't a seal, they back off.

No thanks, not for me. I’d rather go for a stroll in Tiger infested Indian jungles wearing a fur coat.

Exactly. "Shark’s-eye view’ of a paddling surfer and seal, suggesting white sharks may struggle to differentiate the two."

That horrifying shot of the Kintner boy being killed by the shark, followed by the disorienting parallax zoom, is quite a moment in cinema. JAWS is a great movie.

"Most sharks attack out of a case of mistaken identity. Once they realize a surfer isn't a seal, they back off." Sadly, the victim is missing 10 lbs when they back off.

I seen a reel on that... I assumed it was fake. And still believe it may be... the jaw width tells me it isnt strong enough to bite completely thru like that...

there is not a single tooth shape in the bite radius, the left side of the bite doesnt penatrate the bottom of the board, and on the left, it appears the shark has and underbite... Im just sayin... I've been a waterman my whole life and never seen a bite out of a board like that... see the difference in the pic below? you can see the teeth profile with proper upper and lower jaw alinement...

The first rule about surfing your out of your element and your not at the top of the food chain.
