Sharks don't hunt in packs. However, they can smell blood at incredible distances, and won't attack each other if an easy meal (you) is thrashing around bleeding.
Anyway, I was just reading a book about sharks' electrical capabilities. I guess they have sensors in their nose which can detect up to .5 volts or amps or whatever is really small. They can hunt fish by detecting the small amounts of electricity it takes to pass signals down the nervous system. Thus, I'll just bring 20 9 volt batteries with me, and throw them randomly. Hopefully by the time he eats all those, I'll be out of the water.
It'd prolly be smarter to bring a spear gun or something though. Hrumpft.
Anyway, I'd fight. I know I couldn't win. What you see on the Discovery channel isn't half as fearsome as real attacks. I don't know. It just isn't natural to let another animal attack you, without attempting to beat the shit out of it.
