The scene where Robert Shaw told his story of being aboard the USS Indianapolis when it was torpedoed very chilling

SneakyMole92698., it's a actual fact that if you live in the US you are more likely to be killed by a cow.

linkstamer, yes and i was a little girl when that came out and didnt know at the time until later as an adult that my cousin Robert Minjarez died on that ship or should i say from the sharks attack. i pray for him all the time and his brother my other cousin Rueben who died and is still in the USS Arizona. very sad for my family.

SneakyMole92698., dont worry even Peter Benchley who wrote Jaws regretted his portrayal of sharks .

Fun fact: Jaws is based on a true event that happened on the East, south shore of Long Island, NY in 1964

Love the movies....and the books. Even though they are pretty much different stories. The fact that it is a picture of a mako on the cov3wr is just funny.

HipRider94798, I live in Florida, & I was shocked so much by that movie, I didn't go to the Beach, for a swim, for 2 or 3 years.. However, an interesting fact: Scientists actually tagged a Great White shark in the New England area, & it spent 3 months off of Jacksonville's beach. So, I WAS RIGHT.

When I was little my parents took us to Florida and to see the movie "Jaws"... and later on took us out in the boat in the Gulf of Mexico. I just knew we were going to be eaten by a 🦈 shark! I was so young that that movie scared me to death.

Montana Lady, Statistically, you are more likely to be killed taking a "selfie"

VelourBanjoPlayer141, that line was improvised. Spielberg liked it and kept it in the movie.
