On the podcast this time, Scuba Steven and Sean are hunting down the most dangerous thing to ever swim in the oceans around Amity Bay in Steven Spielberg’s film from 1975, Jaws.
We get it—money’s important. But hey, council members of Amity Bay, aren’t human lives important, too? I bet you’d be singing a different tune if it was one of your kids who got ka-chomped by this murderous fish. Doubly so if you lost your legs during a sexy swimming incident.
Good thing Brody, Hooper, and Quint are on the case. Without this rag-tag trio of unlikely shark hunters, there would be an unstoppable massacre happening in the shallow waters around the quaint seaside town at the center of the story.
They’re scared, too, but at least they understand and appreciate the gravity of the situation. People need to stay out of the freaking water! If you go in, you might die, and it won’t be a pleasant death. Simple as that.
But hey, sometimes parting fools from their money isn’t the easiest thing to do. Sometimes you’ve got to lose a few young souls to the mouth of a hungry great white in your non-stop quest for more tourist money. I’ll say this, I’m not planning a trip to Amity Bay anytime soon, that’s for sure.
