We all have a mental bucket list—things we dream of experiencing before we kick the bucket.
And then there’s the anti-bucket list, the nightmares we hope never come true.
Somewhere near the top of that second list? Getting devoured by a shark. And if it wasn’t before, it sure is now that you’re thinking about it.
Luckily, you don’t have to dive into a shark’s gaping maw to get a front-row seat to the horror. Some divers in the Bahamas already took care of that for us.
Earlier this month, ABC News got their hands on jaw-dropping footage from a team feeding sharks when one particularly ambitious tiger shark decided the camera looked tastier than the chum.
This means we get to see a wild, teeth-baring spectacle caught in a glorious first-person perspective. The shark didn’t just bite the camera—it swallowed it. But like any seasoned filmmaker will tell you, the golden rule is never stop recording. And that’s exactly what happened. The camera kept rolling, capturing every second of its short-lived journey through the beast’s insides until it was, mercifully, spat back out.
The recovered footage is probably the closest you’ll ever get to seeing what it’s like to be fish food—without, you know, actually becoming it.
Despite the fear factor, shark attacks are rarer than we think. According to the Florida Museum of Natural History’s International Shark Attack File, there were 88 shark attacks worldwide in 2024.
Of those, only 47 were unprovoked—meaning the humans weren’t actively antagonising the sharks but simply existing in their domain.
But let’s be real—nothing grabs headlines like a shark attack. Well, except for someone doing something so mind-numbingly dumb that they earn a shark attack. Case in point: a woman who recently attempted to take a selfie with a shark. Spoiler alert: it didn’t end well. The creature took both of her hands. Who could’ve guessed?
Nature doesn’t play. But hey, at least now you can see what a shark attack looks like—without losing any limbs in the process.
