A 32-year-old photographer was able to capture incredible images of a great white shark charging his underwater shark cage off Neptune Islands in South Australia.
A commercial fisherman and his girlfriend were shocked when a massive great white shark lurched from the water to snag a bite of the bait hanging off the back of their boat in the Florida Keys.
The shark, which was estimated to be 15 to 16 feet in length, according to the boat’s captain, Carter Bates, emerged from the water near Summerland Key on Tuesday to get a taste of what was inside Bates’ chum bag. Bates' girlfriend, Suzy Gumbo, was quick to film the event, and, as of early Friday afternoon, it had more than 180,000 views and 3,000 shares on Facebook.
“Oh my God,” Grumbo can be heard repeating in the video.
“I’ve certainly never seen anything like this before,” Grumbo, 44, later told the Miami Herald of the wild moment.
Bates, who told the newspaper he has worked as a commercial fisherman for roughly a decade, said the great white circled the boat for a few hours before making its move on the chum bag, which was about 100 pounds in weight, per the Miami Herald.
“It only wanted the chum block,” the 37-year-old said, noting the shark didn’t appear to have interest in the yellowtail snapper they caught earlier that day.
"When it's there, right there, it's like yeah, a little intimidating, but at the same time amazing because that’s a creature I’ll probably never ever see again," Bates separately told NBC Miami of the shark.
Suzy Grumbo did not immediately return Fox News’ request for additional comment Friday.

This Florida couple sold their house to fund a 'boozy bouquet' start-up — now they have a $75,000 'Shark Tank' deal

Flasky Flowers co-founders Kelly and Ryan Moynihan

Shark Tank: Lori And Kevin Go Into A Bidding War
Kelly Moynihan held up a bouquet of flowers.
"What if I told you I had a margarita in my hand," she said. "Would you believe me?"
Believe her. In 2019, Moynihan partnered with her husband Ryan to launch Delray Beach, Florida-based Flasky Flowers , a start-up that makes flower bouquets with built-in flasks. Moynihan, a hairstylist by training, came up with the idea working at weddings: She watched bridal parties scrambling to hold their flowers and find somewhere to stash their drinks.
"I came home and I said to Ryan, 'I've got something. We gotta do this,'" Moynihan said on Friday's episode of ABC's "Shark Tank."
The couple invested $60,000 of their own money, and sold their house for additional seed money. Ryan Moynihan quit his job to take care of their seven kids. And Kelly Moynihan got to work on a prototype involving a baby's feeding bottle and a plastic martini glass with a straw.
Two years later, on Friday's "Shark Tank" episode, the couple's latest design landed a $75,000 investment from Sharks Lori Greiner, Mark Cuban and Kevin O'Leary, in exchange for a 30% stake of the company.
"I couldn't ask for anything more than that," Kelly Moynihan said.
The Sharks expressed interest in the company's sizable profit margins — each bouquet is listed online for $25, but only takes $1.77 to make, the couple said — and the Moynihans' story of overcoming adversity.
After making it through 2019, the couple planned to ramp up operations. Then, the Covid-19 pandemic wiped out their prospective market. The wedding industry's revenues declined by 34% decline last year, according to market research firm IBIS World .
At the time of the taping, Flasky Flowers had only brought in $25,000 in sales since launching. The company had 1,500 units waiting idly in inventory.
"We're in a place right now, with the seven kids, where we're just skating by," Kelly Moynihan told the Sharks. "[But] I know if I keep moving forward with this, there's a finish line — and I'm going to get it."
Wedding industry professionals are hoping for a massive recovery from the pandemic's lows. Timothy Chi, CEO of wedding-planning website company The Knot , told CNBC's "Squawk on the Street" in July that he already sees couples preparing to " go all out ."
The Moynihans just need to survive until then. "In today's world, you can't just go the extra mile," Greiner told them. "You have to go the extra marathon, so that's what you did."

Tiger sharks - the deadly marine predators with jaws so powerful they can crack the shell of a sea turtle
A BRIT who was eaten by a shark has been pictured for the first time after his wife forced to identify him by his arm and wedding ring found inside the predator.
He was reported missing by his wife Verity on Sunday and the grizzly remains of the hand were found inside the stomach of a 9ft tiger shark after they were brought ashore.
She told cops in the Indian Ocean paradise of Reunion Island she recognized a ring on the finger as belonging to her missing husband.
The couple were staying in the exclusive five star Lux Hotel on St Gilles and had arrived last week to celebrate Verity's 40th birthday.
Yesterday a police source on the island told The Sun:''The hand and forearm of a man was found inside the stomach of one of the captured tiger sharks.
All four were around three to four metres long.
''The woman identified the ring as belonging to her husband but the DNA tests will officially confirm if it is the missing man. Further investigations will be carried out on the sharks and the contents of their stomachs examined.
''The sharks were caught because they were swimming way out of their natural habitat. They were in the lagoon area which is shark free because of the coral but they somehow managed to find a way in.
''They were taken to the shark research centre where the autopsy was carried out and the human remains found.
''At this stage we don't know if the man drowned and was then attacked or if he was attacked while swimming.''
The couple were staying in the exclusive five star Lux Hotel on St Gilles and had arrived last week to celebrate Verity's birthday.
A police helicopter was called in for the search on Saturday but no trace could be found of him.
The couple were originally from the north west of England but had moved to Scotland 15 years ago.
Friends who worked with him at Scotland's land registry have said he was a 'kind' and a 'very English eccentric'.
Richard worked for the Scottish civil service in Edinburgh and his wife was employed at a local events company.
Shark attacks are common in Reunion and since 2011 there have been 27 with 11 proving fatal.
The island is classed as French department and last month during a visit President Emmanuel Macron said Paris would double financial assistance to two million Euros to help prevent shark attacks.
Last night the Foreign Office said:''We are providing support to the family of a British man who died while snorkelling in La Réunion and are in contact with the local authorities.”
Tiger sharks have excellent senses of sight and smell and a nearly limitless menu of diet items.
They have sharp, highly serrated teeth and powerful jaws that allow them to crack the shells of sea turtles and clams.
The stomach contents of captured tiger sharks have included stingrays, sea snakes, seals, birds, squids, and even license plates and old tires.
Tiger sharks are common in tropical and sub-tropical waters throughout the world.
Large specimens can grow to as much as 20 to 25 feet in length and weigh more than 1,900 pounds.
They are heavily harvested for their fins, skin, and flesh, and their livers contain high levels of vitamin A, which is processed into vitamin oil.
They have extremely low repopulation rates, and therefore may be highly susceptible to fishing pressure.
They are listed as near threatened throughout their range.
