#139 The Summer of Terror: When Sharks Broke Bad

What this episode covers

In 1975, Steven Spielberg shocked audiences when he promised them they would “never go in the water again!” But with the release of the hit film “Jaws”, beach lovers around the world, did just that. But the real life events that inspired the Horror classic… were not only more terrifying, but even more gruesome than Spielberg could have imagined. Well, we hope you're not going swimming soon, because today we’re talking about the 1916 Jersey Shore Shark Attacks that not only inspired the movie“JAWS”.. But also changed the way we think about Sharks.. Forever…..probably.... we obviously don't know the future.
