That is a big old shark. No teeth, but I would still swim for my life if that thing was even in viewing distance@!

Did anyone see the article on newsday.com? (I don't get the paper so I use the wesbite). It showed a picture of 3 girls actually touching the thing! I agree with the OP, if I see a shark, I'm outta there!

The basking shark and whale shark are harmless, even though they are huge.

Now the shark is 26 feet long. It's growing longer the more the media reports on it.
