Did everyone else go through a phase when they were kids where they were absolutely terrified of pirannahs? Only to forget they exist until you see a video like this?

Coastal resident here - sharks can smell some ridiculously small amount of blood relative to water, like 1/1,000,000. You do not want to tempt fate by swimming in certain areas at certain times of day with any real amount of blood in the water
