I have always been interested in sharks and watching programmes about sharks. I see that Discovery is going to be airing a "Shark Week". Just curious as to if anyone out there knows any controversial or any less known ways or repelling sharks when one is in water or ways to escape if under attack by sharks?

That's true. Sharks usually feed during the night. But when you are being attacked by one, the best way is to hit them so they would let go. Then, swim as fast as u could to avoid them because they will come after you. This is because of the blood that is coming out from the wound caused by the bite.

Also, if they are around, and u are in water, be still. Motions and splashes makes them curious and attracts them. They might mistake you for a prey.

Hope this helps.

The best way to survive a shark attack is to avoid one! Sharks are most active during twilight and evening hours, and staying out of the water during those times is a sensible precaution.
