Shark repellent is an actual thing!!


I'm not much of a diver - mostly due to a fear of sharks, but the other day I was in a shop which sells lots of diving gear and I came across genuine shark repellents.

Seems it's legit!

That was my one issue with this movie, now that I know it's a real thing I think it's a masterpiece.

That is THE best thing in the movie!

I don't know Dazed, finding out where to put that bomb was pretty sweet too!

I would imagine that back in 1966, shark repellent was less widely available, if at all. Perhaps Batman foretold the future.

reply

Maybe Batman invented it.

That scene was the influence for the movie Jaws
