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
I was able to pet a bunch of them and huge stingrays off of Belize while snorkeling. The boat I was on tossed a bunch of chum and then five minutes later we jumped in. They were all so chill with full bellies.
The Bahamas you can do this, but you are absolutely correct, and I think they are like ranked 5 or 6 in human bites, something ridiculously high, because they are all calm and people get stupid, mostly divers from what I’ve heard.
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.

They’re normally docile, unless you get caught up in them while they’re feeding
Saw Shark!
I totally forgot about those …
