From what I understand you're essentially correct. The shark comes up to investigate because she kind of looks like a seal from underneath but the shark isn't sure. As the shark comes up she touches the shark which makes the shark go "WTF was that? It touched me!" Then nope out.

Prey does not boop snoots. Therefore if you boop snoot you are not prey.

Do you know the old adage:

If you stay still, get ready for the kill

If you boop the snout, you might get out… alive

If you boop the snout, you will stay about.

This only works for Canadians.

I wonder if the diver tries really fast to orient herself on the top side if the sharks head?
