Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water a clip scarier than anything out of all the Jaws movies combined comes along.
Thanks in part to TV programs like Discovery Channel's Shark Week, it's no secret that people everywhere have become completely fascinated by these underwater animals in recent years. However, with so many shark sightings in the United States this year and the now-infamous attack of professional surfer Mick Fanning on live TV this July off the coast of South Africa, 2015 has become a year when people have seriously gone into full-blown shark mania.
I don't know about you, but even though experts claim that most predatory sharks are gentle until provoked and diver Julie Andersen even goes as far as saying people should learn to swim with them, I'm not about to take any chances in shark infested waters…especially after seeing this next video from the Today Show in Australia.
As you can see in the following video, breakfast TV host Karl Stefanovic was understandably shaken after footage of a monster shark aired on the early AM show. As he and co-host Lisa Wilkinson saw the clip of a giant 20-foot shark leaping out of the water and swallowing a giant object whole, Stefanovic's response was both hysterical and justified.
I have to admit I was completely speechless, too. This giant might be thousands of miles away, but his few seconds in the spotlight is enough to keep me on dry land, at least for now.
