      And 90% of statistics are made up on the spot.

      Here’s what wikipedia says:

      According to the International Shark Attack File(ISAF), between 1958 and 2016 there were 2,785 confirmed unprovoked shark attacks around the world, of which 439 were fatal.[16] Between 2001 and 2010, an average of 4.3 people per year died from shark attacks.[3]

      Still very low, but nearly 100 times higher than your number.

        The world is somewhat larger than the red sea area.
