Summary

In December 2010, the Egyptian resort town of Sharm El Sheikh, one of the world’s most popular diving destinations, was shaken by a series of unprecedented shark attacks. Over just a few days, five swimmers were mauled and one was killed in clear, shallow water. What followed was chaos: beach closures, international headlines, conspiracy theories, and a desperate search for answers. This episode investigates what really happened in the Red Sea that week — how a perfect storm of environmental disruption, human interference, and ecological imbalance turned a tropical paradise into a scene of fear.
