Reminds me of the shark defense story told us by my basic instructor circa
1968.
When a shark approaches, sit back to back on the bottom.
Take out your knife.
Stab your buddy and escape when the shark attacks her.

A few years later at the end of my NAUI instructor course one of the
instructor told her favorite method of gaining the attention of a class.
Place your most unruly student in 8 - 10 feet of water.
Have him take off his gear, take a deep breath, hold it and push violently
against the bottom to ascend.

The mini-hammerhead is a POS, as are all the in-line LP noisemakers.

If you are trying to impress everyone with teaching credentials,
that would be a mistake.
