Great whites are just like running backs or a slow AF freight train, tigers are twitchy like that meth head at the petrol station, bull sharks are actually bullies, makos are a bullet train with teeth and something to prove, hammerheads are just plain graceful.
Coolest shark is definitely a hammerhead, I’ll vote for the Great HH.
[edit 2nd coolest sharks are Nurse Sharks because you can wade / sit in the water and they come up like dogs.
Nurse sharks are friendly? The things I remember about them from my childhood book on sharks are: they sleep in big piles on the ocean floor, their eggs are like weird sacks, and they latch on after biting and will not let go
They’re little sea puppies that are perfectly happy to cruise around while you swim with them. At least that’s the grey nurse sharks we get in aus. The ones you’re describing sound more like wobbegongs or similar. The grey nurses need to be in highly oxygenated water.
Grey nurses also used to have a rep as “man eaters” but that was just because of how they looked,not any actual attacks
Reef Whitetips are a good book, mostly harmless so Don’t Panic.
Oceanic Whitetips - straight gangsters … When they come rolling in on a dive it’s ALWAYS gonna be more than one like you intha wrong hood cuz and thugs be comin up outta the shadows circling you, checking you out deciding if you a pussy ass or what. (Spoiler: They always eventually decide you are in fact a pussy ass …aallllwwwaaayysssss)
I don’t fuck with these at all ever, I get the fuck out of the water.
Pretty good sharks! Agree with your post though. Saw sharks are just some cool guys.
If you wanna love and hate sharks simultaneously, watch My Octopus Teacher. Incredible documentary of nature happening, and there’s some heady shark action on top of the best octopus character study I’ve ever seen.
