As far as I know the only shark that can stop moving and not die is the Nurse shark.

How about "lil' Hitler" as another shark name?
I also loved how they glamorized the great hammerheads as "killers" when they are primarily a fish eating shark.
Also keep in mind that EVERY shark will eat meat if it is given tothem as free food. Not all will go for land based meals if they typically go for fish.
Another thing to defend the hammerhead's place of distiction:
Their heads are designed to find food (SEAFOOD) hidden under the sand. They do eat fish, and attack viciously to do so, but that's usually when it's attached to a rod and reel.
