Witness account from a Navy Clearance Diver when reporting the incident. They were surfing in the water at the time:
“One white shark closed our position yesterday, the distance between the shark and the group was inside 10m and not closer than 5m and swimming at us with pace: it came from the SW not from the east. Surfers exited the water and the shark followed the group right up to the rocks. It could have T-boned the group within seconds.
The fin was damaged and all busted up and looked large. I mistook the fin for a seal, side fin down at the end section of the peak. That’s 20m away, so it was a big shark.
The fin was bigger than a 16 by 32 inch Mac computer, and was still submerged. I saw 40+cm of exposed fin from the waterline, with more fin below the waterline.
The damage to the fin was evident, there was pieces missing from the outline and lots of scratches. The outline of the fin was squarish with long triangle like pieces missing from the rear of the fin. This indicates that it is not a juvenile white. Juvenile white finds have clean outlines and are more raked. This was an adult. Adults are between 4-6m. I think total fin size may have been just shy of 50cm. This means it may have been a 4.5-5m adult GW.”

It’s not a matter of if it will eat you it’s a matter of when. Boys you got lucky. If you stayed out 5 more mins it’s an easy meal.
Holy S**t!!!!!!!!!! I have been chased out of the water because of sharks a few times. But nothing like this. Damn. Glad these blokes made it out OK.
Is that no2's
Aww the shark meant no harm. One the surfers lost their wallet or keys and he being a good sport, just wanted to give them back.
weird since they've been protected there are more white shark attacks
Two blokes in the African desert. One's looking through the binoculars at a Cheetah. The Cheetah looks at them… "Whoah, John that cheetah is staring right at us…. oh John that cheetah is running towards us." John says, "sheese Terry we better start running". Terry is about to take off when John sits down, un-laces his hiking boots, pulls a pair of Nike's out of his bag and starts putting them on… Terry says, "Holy smokes John what are you doing, you can't outrun a cheetah"…. John says, "I don't have to outrun the Cheetah Terry mate, I just need to outrun you."
Sharks, The reason I don't swim in salt water anymore…

Year, that'd get your ass snapping at the sea grass while you make out like Jesus Christ walkin on water.
Black wetsuits look like a pack of seals no wonder
This is pretty much how I think of Australia. Getting chased around by everything that wants to kill you everywhere. Kind of like Florida. 🤩
Wasted minute
Surfing or swimming in salt water is a death lottery now that humans have scooped out more than 90 of what sharks and orcas eat from the world's oceans. At this point you're offering yourself as food if you do either.
I used to snowboard. No sharks on the mountain.
Evolution at work.
im a big fan of terra firma.
Seals also hide on rocks for great whites.

Sharks are dorks 😤
My fatass would not be in shark waters
Nope! There is a reason why God didn't give us gills.
Lucky we are not normally on the menu, still they are like us and make
mistakes too
Surely you'd be swimling with a good knife strapped to you nowadays… 'Gna have me some fun'
Yet they are stupid enough to paddle back out there.
