Sharks often get a bad rep. They are seen as dangerous to beach goers, but this fear is not really well founded. In fact, the numbers are sort of absurd. Some estimates put it as low as 1 in 4.33 million, while other estimates go as high as 1 in 264.1 million! In either case, the likelihood of being hurt by a shark is incredibly low. We have put together short list of some unexpected items which are more dangerous than sharks.
For starters, mosquitoes which carry malaria are far more lethal than sharks have ever been. Though, if we are going to compare the rates at which animals kill humans, then there are many species which far exceed sharks. Some are not difficult to guess: like snakes or other humans. But others are less expected, like dogs, freshwater snails, and crocodiles.
One would also expect that there are many, many bodily ills which could beat sharks, too -- like heart disease, cancer, or complications of age. However there are also many less common conditions which are more frequent than shark attacks. Anything from hypothermia to the common flu, but also falling down, sun exposure, or even infections that are gotten in hospitals (which, as expected, are incredibly rare).
Even further, there are some of the rather unique was of going. For instance, being struck by lightning. You are still more likely to be struck by lightning than to be harmed by a shark -- some even contend that you are more likely to be struck twice. Other odd ways might include champagne corks, fireworks, ladders, sand hole collapses, or even being caught in a tornado. All of these are still more common than shark attacks.
BUT WAIT...
