Smooth like sharks? In all directions.

I'm petting a shark right now and it's totally smooth.

Does the blood really look green? 🤔

If you're deep enough, certain wavelengths of light wouldn't reach to reflect back into your eye, and I do believe red is super weak but green is really strong. Though, I could also have that backwards 🤔

My wife pricked her finger on a sharp growth as we were entering an old warship at a depth of about 35 meters. I remember the dark green strands coming out of her vividly. It looked very alien, accentuated by the fact the bridge of the old ship was overgrown with sea life, yet it was somehow a distinctly human environment.

I bet the teeth are also smooth if you feel the sides and not the points.
