Well after looking up some feats I'm afraid you're right.
I knew the strength was there but I wasn't sure about the speed. I was going to have some come up from underneath and make the quarters closer but it may still be to no avail even though I believe the sharks could manage a few bites under those conditions.
Except his sharks are featherweight at 15 tons.
If I got a dollar for every duplicate or similar thread I've seen on this forum throughout the years, I could buy KMC.
I'm still not sold on him totally resisting teeth that would be much sharper than in that pic and the jaw pressure behind it.

I think you are underestimating Namor very badly.
In water the dude is at least class 100 strength. Which I'm sure is more than enough power to kill a shark in one hit (megalodon or not)
And he would have a ridiculous speed advantage.
He was shown to go 345 mph underwater... I guarantee no shark seems that fast.
He has tanked Cyclops unvisored blast.
Underwater he was shown to be stronger then Hercules.
Tbh, he could probably just swim fast enough to swim straight through them.

So basically Namor stomps. Namor doesn't have to be high end to win this. High end Namor is on the same level of strength as the Elites (Has slugged it out with Thor, Hulk, Blue Marvel etc.), has planetary level strength, can swim faster than the Quinjet, has electric powers etc.
High end Namor is overkill. Average out Namor's showings and he still wrecks them.

Namor is only NEAR the same level has Thor, Savage Hulk, etc. when they are not at high end levels but much lower levels. Do you understand? Average Namor in my opinion operates at about 100-500 tons of strength. Average Savage Hulk around the same if not a little more. Classic Thor around the same too.
Namor at best has shown about 50,000-100,000 tons of strength. This is hardly planetary. Thor doesn't even have planetary strength on average (not even at his highest).
You overestimate these guys (Hulk, Thor, etc.) Those sharks would bite the hell out of them too (average levels). These sharks have razor sharp teeth that's harder than steel with insane jaw pressure. They can bite through steel like it aint shit. Hulk, Thor, etc. on average has and can be cut by sharp fairly durable weapons.
Stop taking a character's highest showing as a measuring stick to someone else. Otherwise I can say Colossus has planetary strength since he went toe to toe with Gladiator, Hulk, etc.
Average Thor and Hulk would obliterate those sharks. Namor would probably fare better due to his underwater maneuverability. He'd probably allow himself to be eaten, punch through one shark's body and watch as they went nuts.
Yes I understand, you have no idea what you're talking about. Average Hulk, Thor and Namor are around 500 tons. What exactly are you basing this on?
How on earth can you even begin to make up an average number that specific when you know absolutely shit about these characters you troll?
Also, your preconceived notions are getting out of hand, I have no idea why this shit is tolerated on the boards. How can you compare Colossus trading punches with Gladiator for a few panels (Before Bryne even established him as an Elite Superman clone) to the dozens of times Namor has gone toe to toe with Hulk, Thor, Hercules, Sentry etc. (Pretty much every notable strong-man) and looked competitive if not straight up equal. He's even tussled briefly with Blue Marvel, Beta Ray Bill, Surfer and did well apparently.
The rest is just gibberish born out of ignorance. If you think these sharks would give Thor and the Hulk trouble outside of some of their lowest lows, you are straight up wacky.
Also, not too long ago Namor was supporting Utopia. Lol at him topping out at 100,000 tons. Where do you even come up with these numbers?

What's really insulting is watching him enter a Darkseid or Doomsday thread (DC characters who have pretty much no pure lifting feats) and use the complete opposite logic.
No they wouldn't. Both Hulk and Thor are susceptible to their bites. True that Namor has a much better chance than Thor or Hulk because of his maneuverability. Hulk has a better chance than Thor because of his HF. I would say Hulk wins, Thor losses and Namor losses.
And lol at thinking the sharks just swallow when they eat. They phucking chew dude.
If you read my quote you would see that I said, "In my opinion". Thus it could be tolerated. I didn't actually make a claim in that remark. I judge this based off the fights and estimate at what strength level certain beings are operating at. I also base my opinion off feats and writer's opinions (when feats aren't shown).
I disagree that going toe to toe with someone means that you are as strong as them (especially when they are operating at their highest).
Namor only went toe to toe with Hulk, Thor, Hercules a handful of times (not dozens) and even then he was outmatched almost every time. Many strong characters in comics are shown to go toe to toe with other strong characters. Thing and Colossus have their showings against stronger opponents, even shown to be winning sometimes. I don't care, Colossus against Glads is canon and it happened. Doesn't mean that Colossus is at Glads level strength wise though.
Show me Namor supporting Utopia.
As far as the planet wide feat then I up my estimate from 100,000 tons to probably in the billions as Namor's greatest strength feat.
But again, why argue against things that are not the main point? The main point is Namor on average is about a few hundred tonner, same as Savage Hulk and Thor. Again this is my opinion.
