Prevention of Shark Attacks!?

Question

My friend Dave said if you get attacked by a Shark the best thing to do is Throw a Gas Cylinder in its Mouth and Shoot the Cylinder so it Explodes! What other Preventions can I take?

Answer 1

Sounds like "Dave" is going to be in the next "JAWS"??!!

To answer your question: Bang-stick's work good. If you are stuck without a "weapon", try to "punch" the shark in the nose, and try to poke his eyes out.

To prevent an attack: Don't wear shiny or "flashy" watches or jewelry. Sharks are attracted to "blood" so don't have any major cuts or bleeding from wounds ,(or otherwise). They are slightly sensitive to the color "red", so don't wear all red shorts or wet-suit's. If you spearfish, don't carry your catch on your waist.

And if you are on a sinking vessel, in the rigging/mast, and you only have 1 shot at shooting and hitting a scuba tank, wedged into the mouth of a charging white shark, say a prayer to Rory Sheider and make sure you HIT that TANK!  lol

Answer 2

Bang Stick!!!!  Its a shotgun cartridge you put at the end of a spear

Answer 3

Don't swim when you're on your period. My friends actually told me to do that, but little did I know, there aren't any sharks in a lake.

Answer 4

Stop listening to your friend Dave.

Answer 5

I think your friend Dave watches too much television...but then you already knew that.

Answer 6

PLEASE Do Not kill a shark and even if you wanted to you probably couldn't do it.

1. Do not wear anything shiny in the water (watch, necklace)

2. Never paddle around so much you look like you are drowning. You are just attracting attention (NOT GOOD)

3. Do not paddle out if you have a cut or gash on your skin that could possibly start to bleed. (Wear a really good water proff bandaide if you have to go out)

Believe or not sharks do not want to eat you. They are known to actually bite a human and then leave, they are not interested in you and if you make yourself available then they will bother you. Good luck!
