Best Answer

Sharks mistake humans for seals, they do not deliberately target humans and usually spit them out when they note their mistake. But it is rare you would die from them. Because we taste bad to them. But you would lose a lost amount of blood.

While this may be true for shallow water sharks found off the islands of Hawaii and other coastal locations, the behavior of deep and ocean water sharks is far more predatory and unpredictable.

Shark is actuall very good tastin. In some places such as Asia it is a delicacy. Asia people have what is called "Shark Fin Soup" and is very popular among the people. From what I have heard, grilled shark is the best tasting. Sharks are like animal, people can and will eat them.

Why do the sharks eat people?

Sharks eat or attack people because they see them as their regular diet. They don't mean to eat us they just mistake. Some sharks actually let go because they realize that you are not good tasting or a part of its diet. We are not yummy to sharks. Compare you on a surf board on your tummy, a turtle, and a sea lion.
