Fun fact: people assume sharks attack humans because they sometimes look like seals, but in reality they can sense cancer in various parts of the body and their protective instincts lead them to severing those parts of the body.

So if I'm attacted by a shark I have biiger issues to worry about?

No, if you're attacked by a shark and it lets you go, you are most likely cured already

What do you suppose the sharks need therapy for?

So if I'm out surfing and a shark passes me by, I'm either healthy or it's too late and the cancer has metastasized?
