Will the summer of 2008 be a prelude of things to come?

Episode 3 - Rogue Sharks
First Aired: August. 01,2011

It was the central premise of the hit movie Jaws that still haunts people today: that certain sharks may "go rogue" and decide to go after humans. But does the science back this up? In this hour, we'll weave stories of some of the most horrific shark attacks in history with the larger scientific detective story of whether or not individual sharks ever develop a taste for human flesh and go Rogue.
