The act of keeping yourself moving or busy in order to stay awake and alert when you're very tired: Just as a shark needs to keep moving to keep breathing, you need to keep moving to stay awake and alert - otherwise you would go quiet and start to droop and slouch as tiredness sets in. Thrashing onwards like a shark will fight off the tiredness.
"I've been sharking all day today. I'm so tired but it had to be done."
"I sharked for the entire day today! I really hope I can get to sleep earlier tonight...."
"Sharking is hard. I'm tired. Someone slap me, please."

To sneak up on an unsuspecting woman in public or on the train and ejaculate on her. Popular in Japan.
I saw a video of sharking and half of it was the woman cleaning her hair, until she got sharked again.

(v) Recently discovered, the Universal Studios shark from the Jaws tourist photo op has the ability for skilled annual pass holders to go inside the shark for their photo. Most tourists will stop and go "ooooh!!!" since the majority of people stick their head into the shark or stand next to it. Inspired by a photo of Steven Speilberg in a shark (named after his lawyer, Bruce) a super cool annual pass holder known only as "nutterbutter" started the trend in 2009.
To "shark" one must go inside the shark with their legs in the mouth and hang upside down. This is an alternative to planking.
