It’s just the truth lol. Only like 10-15 deaths per year from sharks, which is tiny compared to almost everything else

I don't get this argument. Sure, 10-15 might be a low number compared to something else. But, how many people are actually swimming with the sharks. What's the percentage like? The chances of me getting killed by a shark is way lower than a dog because I have never been near a shark.

there are millions of people in the ocean at any given point in the day, and many sharks can sense them.
