Default 10 Deadliest Sharks

Check out the picture of the Shortfin Mako catching
some air. It is the fastest shark.

While I'm certain I could survive an attack due to my speed and
strength, I'd do better not dealing with an animal as large as the
White or Tiger. BTW, a Great White typically swims at a few knots with
max speed of 15-20 MPH. A Blue shark can attain 60 MPH in short bursts.
Pretty amazing.


Just ask "Two Bite Bob" for any info on how to evade shark attacks.....
