Man as a kid I wanted a can of Shark Repellent soooo bad!
Remember that Batman movie scene with him on the helicopter ropes over water and a shark trying to bite him on the bottom of the ladder?
I kid you not, I used to pin a towel to my shoulders and run around "flying". Hitting my head a few times on things (easy to do running with your head down), needing stitches at the hospital, couldn't tame my Batman fantasies!
