I have never swam or sharks nor would I want to.
But I really want to try to swim with the dolphins I think that would be awsome and really cool.

Oh I am so pleased that I cannot swim! 
I only enter the water up to my ankles and there is no fear of sharks coming that close to the beach so I will not have to consider ever having to swim with them at all pheeeewwwwww

lol Fair enough. I will admit though, even ankle deep I worry about SOMETHING grabbing me LOL. Pretty much like MyLot, you never know when someone or something is going to attack you for no reason...haha Thank you for your time and for answering and not abusing me.

If I keep my feet on the ground then whatever might attack, onshore or off, will have less chance of catching me off my balance. I don't see any point in learning to swim and going out to where I am certain there are sharks. Why look for trouble when I can avoid it - and play in the sand

Swimming with sharks? No thanks, I am not going to do this even if it's only a 3-D virtual environment. You love swimming with crocodiles? Don't ask me, I don't know how to swim itself.

Lol at the comments above. Hahaha. Going on with the discussion, no I haven't swam with sharks and if given the chance to do it I wouldn't dare. They're scary. Sea killers as portrayed in the movies. I don't want their sharp teeth under my skin. :p Thank you but NO. :)

Oh my goodness! I would never swim with Sharks! They are truly one of my greatest fears. I am so terrified of them that I refuse to go swimming at the beach. It just gives me chills not knowing what is lurking in the water below me.
Although I am terrified of the creatures I seem to know a lot about them. I educate myself so that I can gain a better understanding as to why they attack humans. They are fascinating creatures. But I would NEVER swim with them.

I have swam with sharks before...it wasn't out in the ocean somewhere, it was in a closed tankish area. Not glass walls or anything, the water we were in CONNECTED to open water through bars...there were two sharks in there with us, I don't know what kind they were--but they weren't great whites or anything! lol. I was younger then...12 or younger probably, and I spent a lot of the time clinging to my mom (I was so scared of them!) lol.
Now that I'm older I don't think I would swim with any sharks OTHER than a nurse shark. I would consider swimming with nurse sharks because they are a docile, nonagressive breed. But I wouldn't even swim with any other kinds if I were in one of those shark cages lol.
I've also swam with dolphins! I really enjoyed that and wasn't scared of them at all! I would do that again in a heartbeat!!!
Now I'd like to swim with manatees. I love manatees and that would be a wonderful experience!
