Australian Cameraman Braves Shark-Infested Water To Film A Shark Attacking A Marlin

A couple of Australians sailed out into the ocean to release a marlin back into the wild. That sounds like a nice story, right? Well, it would have been, if a giant shark hadn't come out of nowhere to rip the marlin to pieces in front of them and their cameraman, who was stuck in the water at the time.

Any sane person would, perhaps, try to get out of the shark-infested waters. But not this videographer. Despite being in a giant cloud of marlin blood, he keeps filming, and says after the fact that all he could think was, "this is going to be awesome!" He may have chosen the safest route, though: the giant shark is more or less blocking his way back to the boat. Plus, it was awesome.
