I once read that sharks have a special mechanism or a membrane that protects
their eyes when they go for their prey. I think my brother brought it up
when I said "go for the eyes if a shark ever attacks you". If they shut
their eyes when they hit and open them later, that's a blink, right? A
bloody long blink, ain't it?
