Pacific angelsharks are not what you would call, the fastest swimmer. Much like rays, the pacific angelshark glides along the bottom of the ocean, but can give quick burst of speed when need be. A pacific angelshark's prey can swim faster then the shark itself.

Will there ever be a boy born that can swim faster than a shark?

It is highly unlikely for a human boy to be born with the innate abilities to swim faster than a shark. Sharks are incredibly fast and efficient swimmers, adapted for life in the water in ways that humans are not.


What is the fastest shark and how fast can it swim?

The Shortfin Mako is the fastest species of shark. It's speed has been recorded at 50 kilometres per hour (31 mph) with bursts of up to 74 kilometres per hour (46 mph). They can leap approximate 9 metres (30 ft) high or higher in the air. Some scientists suggest that the shortfin mako can swim up to 100 kilometres per hour (62 mph), though scientists are still in debate over exactly how fast the shortfin mako shark can swim. This high-leaping fish is a highly sought-after game fish worldwide. There are cases when an angry mako jumped into a boat after having been hooked.


How do you scare a shark away?

if you do not want to attract sharks...... * do not swim if you are waring shiny stuff * do not swim if you have a cut or open wound * do not swim at night * do not swim alone * do not swim out far * do not swim near fishermen while they are fishing plus if you do get attacked by a shark kick or punch it's nose or pull out it's eyes, those are the week spots.
