One of the few dangerous shark for humans is the Bull Shark, they are very agressive and really attack everything, also humans. Even Spielberg regret the damage made by his Shark movie, relating the white shark as agressive killer monster, it isn't.

Plenty of people swim with bullsharks and hand feed them. Sharks are dangerous when you act like easy prey. Easy prey bleeds, it struggles, and it turns away from the predator to flee. That white shark didn't bite Valerie Taylor because there was easier food, and she was aware of the shark.

Check the link for what happens when you act like prey around these animals. (Trigger warning : shark attack, if it wasn't obvious)
