Piranhas don't eat people.

Cases of piranhas eating people are almost never reported, and although piranhas are known for their violent attacks, they do not actively attack humans. Nonetheless, it is still important to be careful when encountering a piranha because when the water is very low, its prey is diminished, or you are close to its eggs, the piranha can become extremely aggressive due to hunger and trying to protect its offspring.

Piranhas are omnivores and are so timid that they generally do not eat anything alive, although there are exceptions, of course, where they will eat very small fish, worms, and other such critters that do not pose a threat to them. In the origin of the piranha, South America's Amazon River Basin, they are only at the bottom of the food chain, and are often preyed upon by birds, dolphins, caimans, and fish larger than themselves.
