What an adorable pair of besties we have here. This shark named Emma follows a diver around for nearly 2 decades! It took her a while to trust him, but it was worth the wait. Emma loves head rubs and she's very playful and sweet. She also always recognizes the diver, no matter if he has changed into a different wetsuit or not. Sharks tend to have an infamous reputation but the truth is, most sharks are harmless. They just get an unfairly bad rep in horror movies for some reason. Sharks have an amazing history, and are actually even older than dinosaurs! They can grow up to 50,000 teeth in a lifetime and swim up to 60km per hour (Depending on the shark). And they are sorely misunderstood, gentle giants. In a video uploaded to Reddit that was originally created by thedodo, the adorable story of Emma the shark unfolds. We took screenshots so that you can check out the entire story!
