How to use shark in a sentence?

  1. Liz Weinandy:

    It is funny, when we see news clips of a shark swimming near a beach, it scares us into not going near that beach. However, what we should be scared of is double cheeseburgers, French fries and large amounts of sugary beverages, adults can go to the grocery store more and prep food to take on the go so we don't have to get in a situation where we need to rely on fast food so much.

  2. Lizzy Nielsen:

    I could tell that it wasn't too bad, but I could definitely tell that I got bit by a shark.

  3. Clay Newbill:

    I wouldn’t be surprised if something like that happens in the future because it is something that we internally at ‘Shark Tank,’ along with Sony and ABC, have discussed.

  4. John Chisholm:

    This is the time of year that white shark numbers start to increase in the region which happens to coincide with an increase in people heading to the beach, everyone should be shark smart and review shark safety guidelines before hitting the water. If John Chisholm do happen to spot a shark please report it.

  5. Tyler Massey:

    We followed him around for about five minutes. We were sitting there fishing in the spot and the shark just kind of swam up. He just hung out around the top.
