Even Sharks Like AC/DC

June 2, 2011

According to The Pulse Of Radio, an Australian tour operator has discovered that the music of AC/DC attracts great white sharks to his boat so that his customers can see them.

Adventure Bay operator Matt Waller said songs like "You Shook Me All Night Long" and "If You Want Blood (You've Got It)" bring the creatures up close to the boat and his clients in their viewing cages.

Waller said, "We know AC/DC's music works best by trial and error I've seen the sharks rub their faces on the cage where the sound is coming from, as if to feel it.

"We're doing more research to see what works best with different species of shark."
