HOW JAWS SHOULD HAVE ENDED
Jaws has one of the greatest openings of any movie. The lone female skinny dipper taking a late night swim in apparently calm waters meeting an unforgettably violent end. The shock and horror of this brutal opening scene echoes throughout the rest of the story.
The ending of Jaws was a very different affair. Caution, spoilers ahead. Peter Benchley’s book had the shark dying of its wounds while Steven Spielberg’s movie had the shark blown up by chewing on an air tank that takes a bullet.
“Here’s how Jaws should have ended: With no sequels.”
Allegedly Peter Benchley was removed from the set as he vehemently disagreed with Steven Spielberg’s spectacular ending. We believe Spielberg was right to change the ending of Jaws.
However, one YouTube channel has come up with much more logical, but admittedly much less exciting ending for Jaws.
