For those exposed to the movie Jaws at too young of an age, this might be for you.

An Australian company has developed two shark-repellant wetsuits.

There’s one that kind of looks like a zebra and another that resembles the ocean. 

It’s a two-pronged strategy, explained one of the inventors during an interview with KTVU News in Austin, Texas:

“The one is a ‘can’t see me strategy, cryptic in the water’ and the other one is a ‘can see me, but don’t eat me strategy.’”

What do you think?
