A video making the rounds online has captured a close encounter between a spearfisher and a great white shark off the coast of San Diego, California.
The footage first shows the shark’s dorsal fin cutting through the water above the surface before it submerges. An underwater camera then catches the moment the spearfisher spots the shark just a few meters away.
Despite the alarming situation, the man moved quickly and returned to the boat he had dived from, avoiding a worse outcome.
According to ABC News, divers had a close call with a shark off the coast of San Diego and captured the encounter with an underwater camera.
