Surfing is a water sports more enjoyable. There is nothing more exhilarating for a surfer than to ride the biggest waves the longest. However, people who want to learn to surf back to the sport, even before trying a session because of fear of sharks.

In fact, sharks are regarded as predators of hostile sea. They are big, strong, have serrated and are fierce looking to some. In fact, predators of the sea throughout the world, sharks are the most feared. But sharks are perhaps one of the most misunderstood predators. While there had been victims of shark attacks, there are many misconceptions about these creatures.

If you are a novice surf, do not give up the enjoyment of surfing just because of an irrational fear of sharks. Here are 5 reasons why the fear of sharks should never prevent you from learning to surf.

1. Men and women are not part of the diet of a shark.

There is no such thing as a shark-eating men. Men are not staple food of sharks. Although their diet consists of meat, including turtles, fish, seals, sea lions and whales, humans are definitely not on their menu. Because their system has a slow digestion process, sharks are very selective about what they eat. Besides the fact that men and women are too bony for everyone sharks, these animals prefer meat rich in fat content to maintain its temperature and give him more energy, such as those from seals and sea lions .

Sharks rarely attack humans unless provoked, which makes the risk of being attacked very little. In fact, only 15% of shark species frequent the shallow waters or on the coast, where anyone can possibly meet. According to the International Shark Attack File, a score of people being attacked by a shark is only 1-11150000. The risk of dying is only 0-264100000. Therefore, in the majority of shark attacks, the victim always survives and comes to tell the story.

5. The dangers of sharks as we know are exaggerated.

Sharks have been awarded to evil creatures simply by bad publicity. There are more animals that cause human deaths as flies, mosquitoes and bees.
