From John Lydon’s Shark Attack, November 2004
(Channel 5 / Objective Productions)

John has decided to design his own shark repellant wetsuit…

“Everybody bobs in the ocean in black, and they all look like seals, and they all look like shark bait. Dumb move I would think. I want to look completely inedible. I’ve chosen black and yellow stripes, right, so I look like a killer bee, and it kinda reminds me of seasnakes, and nothing likes to eat them because they are poisonous. I want to look, bright, there, with it trendy, the full load. But inedible. What’s up with that?”

John and John: Would you buy a wetsuit from these men?

“You understand what I meant by I hope not to attract sharks, but to actually repulse them”
