What is a shark kiss?

A "shark kiss" is a colloquial term for when a shark briefly touches a person, often the face, usually with its snout, which can happen when a curious shark investigates a diver, but it's a risky interaction that sometimes leads to bites, as sharks use their mouths to explore their environment and can mistake a person for food or feel threatened.
