OK...do you spray it just before or right after a shark attack?


Because everyone that I know that has survived a shark say the same thing...


They never saw it coming.

They've had shark repellent for YEARS. Did the old stuff not work? That's a little disturbing when you think about it.

Tell it to the crew of the USS Indianapolis.

Sharks ate most of them.

Batman already had this, circa 1968. Where have these guys been?

I was going to write that as the 1st comment, but knew it wouldn't be long before someone else did.

Would that be too late for shark repellant?

saying few would be carrying the repellent at the rare moment it's needed.

Wanna bet ?

Beaches could buy this stuff by the gallon and just drop mortar modules of this stuff about 100 yards off the shore and no more sharks for a few hours
