Best Answer

you have a better chance of dying from riding a bike, being struck by lightning, or even being stung by a bee. but if your ever bleeding and going into the ocean, it increases your chance. sharks can smell one tiny drop of blood from a mile away. so if your ever going far out then you should have a group of people with you.

Getting attacked by a shark doesn't happen very often. The chance of you getting attacked by a shark is very low. The reason why shraks attack humans is because they have bad eye sight and their food are turtles, and seals. To them the human body looks like a turtle so they attack.

Sharks aren't mean they're beautiful creatures!

i like sharks there not dangerous on purpose there just trying to stay alive and your more likely to get attacked by a cow than a shark if there hungry threatened or can smell blood that's when you have to get away they can smell blood miles away from the source

What do I if I'm diving and I meet a great white shark?

Be brave and act defensively. Don't panic and remember, most people are not attacked by sharks. Lots of divers have met great whites in the ocean and lived to tell about it. Also remember, the great white shark probably saw you long before you saw him. If the shark wanted to attack you, the shark would attack you before you had a chance to defend yourself. If you see a shark and it has not attacked you prior to seeing it, you have a good chance of not being attacked, if you act brave and act defensively.
