Finning would have an unexpected effect upon Peter Benchley，the man who wrote the book the film Jaws was based on. In 1980，Benchley was diving when he came across an awful sight. It was an area where fishermen were finning，and the sea floor was covered with dead sharks. Benchley saw sharks being killed and this caused deep change in him. He came to see people as a danger to sharks，rather than the other way round. From that day on，he fought to protect sharks. He admitted that his book was wrong about sharks’ behavior. "Sharks don't target humans，” he said. Experts have proved that sharks do not see people as food，and they attack us by mistake. Only around six people are killed by sharks every year.
