Sharks stimulate our imagination and provoke in us ambivalent and excessive reactions. But is the way we picture sharks close to reality? Is fear of sharks justified or are we conditioned to think so? What if the true nature of sharks was different? Maybe at the opposite of what we think? President of Sharkschool Europe, and co-author with Erich Ritter of the book “Shark Human Interaction” (L’interaction Homme-Requin), Jean-Marc has been captivated by sharks since his childhood. As a scientific guide and avid conservationist, he travels the world to teach people how to interact with sharks, what to look for when entering the water and most importantly how to feel safe among them. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
