    Not a really a good choice to be had; I would take the bear because I can’t breathe under water. 6’ bear or shark = death

    Does the shark have lasers mounted on it?

    Does this post seem like a joke to you?

    Hey nard-gobbler...think about it. Lasers don't work well in water and might be detrimental to the shark's defenses.

    Now if you wanted a joke, I could've asked if the bear was allowed a switchblade knife.

    I'd take the shark. Better chance to stab it in the eye(s).

    This is the answer. You could punch shark in the nose and buy some time to swim.

    Definitely the bear at least I can see the thing that is about to kill me -- maybe get a selfie.

    Tough choice.

    Sharks supposedly have a soft nose, but they're relentless killing machines in their element. Hard to throw a punch underwater.

    Bears, on the other hand, respond to body language, posturing and noise, not that I'm an expert. But they have four extra weapons that a shark doesn't have in their paws.

    I picked bear because of land, but probably would die. Is this in a blank cube with nowhere to run? Can you grab a branch or rock? Does the shark stay on the surface where I can throw a punch or gouge their eyes out?
