Most surfers will tell you their happy place is in the water, although things can quickly go south when a shark decides to make an appearance.
Drew Palumbo was lucky in that his sighting was still some way off, although no one hung around to see if that great white wanted to come any closer.
Here’s Huffington Post:
After seeing the footage, experts said they believe the shark was a juvenile great white, estimated about 6 1/2 feet long…
Chris Lowe, director of the Shark Lab at California State University, Long Beach, suggested that the shark may have been trying to dislodge parasites that often attach to sharks’ skin.
“Think of it as a way to try to scratch their backs,” Lowe [said].
Shame we’ve all been there mate, there are few things in this world worse than an itch you just can’t reach.
That shark still has some way to go until it can rival the breaching boss though…
