Scott Haraguchi was peacefully pulling in his line in calm waters just three kilometres off Hawaii’s O’ahu island when a large tiger shark lunged for him.
A video of a shark battling a turtle seems to have sparked a debate about the merits of intervening.
Most of us aren’t all that keen to share our swim with a tiger shark, which is why this drone footage is being shared far and wide. Do these swimmers even know?
We all know that these creatures lurk in the waters beneath us but it’s a different matter altogether when they are hauled out of the water. This oke looks particularly nasty.
