Perhaps you thought punching a shark on the nose to stop it attacking was a bit of an urban myth? Take note.

"I could feel my foot inside its mouth, his whole mouth was around my foot, and I just knew it was some sort of shark," Luke said from his bed in John Hunter Hospital yesterday.

"Then I hit it and it let go and I didn't see anything." (from the Sydney Morning Herald, Australia)

There is a television show called Mythbusters where they found this myth to be plausible though not the best option (if you miss...)
