MOST DANGEROUS
The oceanic white-tipped sharks are the most fearless predators. Jacques-Yves Cousteau says that it is: "the only species of shark that is never frightened by the approach of a diver, and they are the most dangerous of all sharks."

Not all sharks are dangerous, however I think the most dangerous may be The oceanic white-tipped sharks its the only species of shark that is never frightened by the approach of a diver, but its record is not as many as the great white,
The tiger shark, unlike most sharks they eat everything, people have found license plate, tires, and many more junks.
The great white is also another its only one of the few that can head up to the surface, many records of its attack.
The mako are the fastest swimming sharks and can even leap out of the water, swim at about 60 miles per hour (97 kph).
The Bull shark are sharks that can adapt to fresh water, there have being attacks in the Mississippi rivers.
The Black tip reef sharks can swim into very shallow water, and are able to swim into the shore

All sharks are dangerous, but the most dangerous is the Great White Shark. I played a touch-game at an aquarium little place once and they listed different types of sharks and the most dangerous ones.

The 4 most dangerous sharks are the bull shark, the great white shark, the tiger shark and the ocenic whitetip shark. The bull shark is believed by me to be the most dangerous as it can be found in rivers as well as in the sea. It is responsible for attacks in india, australia and usa. It is also highly terrotorial. The ocenic whitetip is infamous because it attacks on downed seaman in the ocean.

Just for the record, the odds of being attacked by a shark are even less than the odds of being struck by lightning..... Typically, less than a dozen per year. The odds of tripping down some stairs and breaking your neck are far greater.
If sharks were actually actively attacking and feeding on humans, surfing would be suicide. Most cases of shark attacks can probably be chalked down to mere curiosity, self defense, or perhaps mistaken identity.
By comparison, humans may kill perhaps 80-100 *million* sharks each year. Because of the trade for "shark fin soup", (a supposed aphrodisiac) most species of shark are in serious decline.
That said, here is an excellent article on the topic of shark attacks
http://www.sharkinfo.ch/SI1_99e/attacks2.html
Here is a list of the number of attacks attributed to the "world's most dangerous sharks..." over the last 400 years...

Most dangerous shark EVER was Megalodon.
It was the inspiration for Jaws and is believed to have reached lengths of over 50 feet.
They became extinct during the Pleistocene.
