5 Gruesome Movie Deaths That Are Way Worse Than You Think (And 5 That Aren't)

4. Shark Attack

Sharks are cold, heartless killing machines that would rip you in half as soon as look at you.

If you're a seal, that is. And if the shark is hungry.

Sharks are actually pretty shy and mostly just confused by the gangly pink apes that occasionally throw themselves into their waters. Sharks, like toddlers, explore the world through their mouths (on account of not having hands or Google), which is how the majority of shark "attacks" come about. If you do get bitten by a shark, there's a pretty good chance that you'll survive.

Obviously, sharks and toddlers differ greatly in one key area (well, many key areas, but one that matters most here), which means that receiving an exploratory nibble from a shark is slightly (but only slightly) worse than getting one from a teething toddler. Once it realises that you're a stringy land mammal, chances are that it will leave you alone, and around 70% of people will survive an attack from a great white. Plus, you get a badass scar.
