Number 10 Sharks Okay so technically you can't run away from this thing but you could swim pretty fast I suppose It's up to you really We're not talking about an individual species of shark here though We're lumping the entire family in as a whole Movies and media are often spreading the picture of sharks as being ferocious killers that eat and destroy everything that comes in their way But it's quite exaggerated that many shark species are harmless to humans Except for some like the tiger shark You see each year there are around 75 shark attacks whereas most arise from a misunderstanding that a surfer looks similar to seals However only ten out of these attacks result in the death of the victim With that said of course sharks especially the great white and bull sharks and tiger sharks are incredibly powerful predators that should always be respected However for at least 2 out of 3 of them they don't really see humans as food I'll give you a guess who does see you as food So if you're scared of sharks don't think of them as monsters killing thousands of people each year because that is simply not true
