WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO DO THIS?

WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO DO THIS?

If you, like JOE, are absolutely terrified of giant, man-eating sharks, then you’ll probably be watching this next piece of footage peeking out from behind your fingers.

YouTuber Abi Smigel Mullens uploaded this brilliant video explaining exactly what was happening; “UNEXSO professional shark handler Cristina Zenato calls a Caribbean reef shark to her lap like a puppy dog. Stephen Frink films with a GoPro Hero 3 Black with monitor mounted on his housing rolling simultaneously with stills capture. Filmed during Bahamas Underwater Photo Week.”

Woman. Calls. Shark. To. Her. Lap. Like. A. Puppy. Dog.

Has everybody lost their mind!?

To be honest, we fully realise that not all sharks are bad people and, according to National Geographic, “you have a one in 63 chance of dying from the flu and a one in 3,700,000 chance of being killed by a shark.”

Still though, it’s a f*ckin’ shark.
