Surfer escapes shark
Print Edition
AN Australian surfer narrowly escaped being ripped apart by a great white shark after it bit into the bottom of his board and sent him flying into the air.
Andrew McLeod was surfing on the Elliston Bar off the west coast of South Australia with two other friends on Wednesday morning when a shark rammed his board.
“Out of nowhere a massive impact like a car crash came from underneath me,” McLeod told Australia’s Seven television network.
He said the shark, which he described as a 4.5-meter great white, flung him into the water and left two large bite marks on his board.
McLeod’s friend Tyrone Swan, who witnessed the attack, said the 35-year-old managed to scramble back onto his board and make it to shore.
“He was ridiculously lucky, he should definitely not be here,” Swan said.
