    I have a technique for avoiding shark attack. Simply position yourself (X) in geometric center of a square of fellow bathers (Y): (Y) (Y) (X) (Y) (Y) shoreline>>>>>>>>>>

        Once I was swimming hundreds of yards offshore in shark infested waters, backstroke, looking up at the sky without a care in the world... fearless with a SharkShield device on my ankle. I dove underwater, relishing the moment when, to my utter shock I saw the SS battery was dead.

        Same approach to avoiding bear attack: you don't have to outrun the bear, just outrun your buddies

        Jaws scarred me for life. Then i moved to hawaii and was scared to go in the water and thats exactly what i said to myself to convince myself to go in the water. Also i moved there the same time the surfer girl got her arm bit off by a shark.

        Same as when you and your friend are being chased by a man eating lion. You dont have to out run the lion, just your friend :)

        Friend, is this what you'd do when swimming with a group of children, Let the shark take a child first before going after you? Or do you realize that sometimes it's not about you, and accept that you're the one who needs to sacrifice themselves. Jesus would disapprove.

        The purpose of the dive knife is to cut your buddy while you swim away from jaws.
