The shark, in one form or another, has been swimming around in the world’s oceans for more than 420 million years now, and for a long portion of that time, it has been considered as one of the Earth’s fiercest and greatest predators. Sharks are much smaller now than they used to be millions of years ago, but there are still certain species that still grow to be pretty large in size, and because of that fact, there are people in the world who pay top dollar in order to obtain one of these creatures. The tiger shark can grow as long as 16 feet, and in 2007 a hedge fund manager named Steven Cohen (pictured), who has a net worth of over 12 billion dollars, bought the body of an already dead tiger shark which measured 14 feet long. In order to prevent decay, the body of this shark is kept inside of a tank of alcohol, and if you were Cohen, you would want to keep the shark in great condition too, especially if you paid 8 million dollars for it like he did.
