Their teeth are designed for gripping and tearing prey, not for damaging large structures like ships. Sharks also lack the size and strength required to puncture a ship's hull. Ship-sinking is more of a myth or exaggeration than a reality when it comes to sharks. So, you can rest easy knowing that sharks are not a maritime threat to ships. Learn more about your ad choices.
