Great white shark appears from nowhere to give divers a fright
- 6 years ago
This is the terrifying moment a huge great white shark appeared from nowhere directly beneath some divers in Mozambique.
The filmer was on a dive with his daughter back in December when he spotted the shark close to the sea bed.
The monster fish then made several very close passes of him and his daughter.
Amazingly the experienced divers said they were not scared by the encounter.
"We continued our dive for half an hour, not seeing the shark again," the filmer said.
According to the filmer, it is the first video footage of a live great white in the waters of Mozambique.
"There have been a few sightings of great white sharks in Mozambique's waters and a few turned up dead in fishermen's nets over the last decade. But no-one has ever photographed or filmed a live one," he said.
"It was the dive of our lives," he added.
