Hills vs. sharks

I'd jump in the tank with the Pygmy Shark and decide not to kill it because the most it could do would be to nibble my finger, and I'm also scared of what Anaisa would say.

Those English classes are going to help immensely.

I'd just try and run it. I doubt I'd make it through alive either way, but I'll at least give the shark a sweaty, gross, dehydrated meal

I would punch the shark in the gills.

You know what's sad? The math nerd in me got excited when reading your initial post and read "You have to run 15 miles up a 45 degree slope." and I proceeded to find out how tall that mountain would be (10.6 miles). Then I re-read your original post and realized that the mountain is 15 miles high, not the slope's length.

In either case my survival chances at a height of that magnitude (whether it's a slope length or the height of the slope) are slim to nil.

What kind of shark is it? If it's a nurse shark or even a blue shark I might want to fight it. If it's a large great white or a tiger shark I would be afraid of blood loss, even though I wouldn't be eaten. Sharks don't like the taste of humans, but they have to bite us to find out.

I had sex with that? :eek:

A shark lives in the sea, they be fishies, so sharks can't climb mountains. I'd sit and laugh at the shark and slowly walk away while taunting it.

Fight the shark, I'm not gonna run 15 miles for a stupid shark.

well, since I can't run a six minute mile on FLAT ground, there's no way i'd be able to do it up a 45 degree slope. i'd survive by gluing my feet to the side of the mountain, just out of reach of the shark, then prick myself to taunt the shark, then watch as it fails in trying to catch me AND suffocates from lack of water oxygen. owned.

I would charege muh lazer.

Me > Shark + 2

which ones yams, you mean the ones i get ap credit for? :D

the shark is the kind that haunts the nightmares of anyone who saw Jaws before the age of 10.

You guys are ignoring the point of the exercise! You aren't making up a way to live, you're deciding how you want to die!

I would live by not dying. It is just how I do things.

Pssh, I could outrun a shark cross country.

I might not have great lung capacity, but they don't even have lungs.
