One of the shark attack"facts" that's caught on in the mainstream media is that sharks can smell blood when a person is menstruating. Though sharks have a very powerful sense of smell and can detect menstrual blood in the water, they aren't attracted to human blood, Andersen explains."A shark is far more likely to be attracted to blood from a marine animal.
When it comes to shark attacks, Andersen advises us to remember that"the statistical reality is that sharks do not regularly bite and certainly don't eat people … If you look at the numbers, literally everything is more dangerous to humans, including dogs, mosquitos, hippos, air fresheners, toilets, buckets, and even falling coconuts."
