Shark Attack Files (2021)

Episode Overview

Marine biologists are digging into a puzzling pattern: the vast majority of shark attack victims are men. While women swim and surf in similar numbers, the data shows a striking gender gap. Researchers suspect it may come down to behavior—men tend to take more risks, venture into deeper waters, and ignore warning signs. Hormonal differences, like higher testosterone levels, might also play a role in provoking sharks. The goal isn't to blame victims, but to understand the science behind the statistics and potentially save lives.
