NBA player, Gilbert Arenas:

There are these things called shark attacks, but there is no such thing as a shark attack. I have never seen a real shark attack. I know you?re making a weird face as you?re reading this. OK people, a shark attack is not what we see on TV and what people portray it as.

We?re humans. We live on land. Sharks live in water.

So if you?re swimming in the water and a shark bites you, that?s called trespassing. That is called trespassing. That is not a shark attack. A shark attack is if you?re chilling at home, sitting on your couch, and a shark comes in and bites you; now that?s a shark attack. Now, if you?re chilling in the water, that is called invasion of space. So I have never heard of a shark attack.

When I see on the news where it?s like, ?There have been 10 shark attacks,? I?m like, ?Hey, for real?! They?re just running around? Sharks are walking now, huh! We live on the land, we don?t live underwater.?

That has to be one of the best summations of the issue I've ever seen :D

On par with the reminder that while humans are the apex predators on land, we're a bit further down the food chain in the water.
