Brian Correiar, an experienced Scuba diver, was paddling his red, 14-foot-long kayak in Monterey Bay, California, when he heard a loud “bang.” A great white shark was attacking it. Correiar said he flew through the air and landed outside the kayak. He looked back “and to my horror saw a great white shark no more than three feet away had my kayak in its mouth.”
As you can see from this video, taken from shore, Correiar starts swimming backward, yelling, “No, God, no” even while the shark is swimming toward him with the kayak in its jaws. “I was sure I was done,” he said. Spoiler alert: The captain of a passing sailboat picked Correiar up before the shark got to him. Read more and see the video here:
