Heh... I'm all for sharks eating more humans... as many as they can catch...
Sherman's Lagoon is a favourite comic strip of mine.

I remember when we were chartering in the Exuma Cays and got the "oh so
you're chartering" lip from a fat Yankee in a boat with his friends. Next
morning in the anchorage I saw them waddling over the side for a swim. About
a minute later I saw a shark fin break surface about ten yards away and
watched it swim right under our boat chasing some bait fish. It was about 6
to 7 feet long.... I didn't warn the fat Yankees. It was so-o-o-o-o funny
watching them exit in fear about 5 minutes later.... all that panicked
splashing and screaming as they fought each other for the swim platform on
their boat.

I did swim over about 20 minutes later despite their shouts of "we saw a
shark, get out of the water" and tell them I had seen the shark "before"
they went in for a swim. When they asked incredulously why I didn't warn
them.. I said I was rooting for the shark and got the impression they didn't
want to be annoyed by "charter boat people"..... ha Ha

And now for the let down:

Since humans aren't the preferred food source... it's fortunate the shark
recognized that what it took to be a harbor seal was a surfer... or that
dude would be lunch. Awesome photo.... the shark looks to be about a 10 to
12 footer.

Looks big for a dolphin... but the wave probably acts to enlarge the fish
substantially.

Seems to me that the vertical fluke indicates a shark.

It would, but it is hard to tell if it is vertical. You can also almost make
out the sloping forehead of the dolphin. It is not unheard of for sharks to be
in waves like that, however. A surfer buddy who I forwarded it to has seen
such.

Surfers see big sharks from time to time, and occasionally get "taste tested".
They are brave folk!
