Wtf are people screaming on the shore?

[@johnb7794]

It was hunting in the shallow water, probably after a ray or something. Screaming for nothing.

[@pd1883]

Total overreaction.

[@warrenc1829]

Hammerheads are not a threat to humans. I've dived with hundreds of them in the Galápagos. Beautiful animals.

I had a huge shark hit my prop offshore of Panama several decades ago. If the shark is in the mood, it will hit anything that moves.
