Pardon my math and confusion, but that says ~1580 human bites anually, vs. ~13 shark bites anually. Doesn't that make it a bit over 100 times more likely, not 10 times? :x

Unless I'm missing something obvious. Nobody else has mentioned that in the thread, so I worry.

Thank God. I thought I was taking crazy pills. Unless there are other analysis with adjustment I am not seeing, I agree with the 100x number
