500-Pound Bull Shark Attacks Fish At Fisherman’s Feet

It doesn’t get much crazier than this. An angler standing atop coral on the Great Barrier Reef in water literally ankle deep fights a giant trevally and suddenly finds a huge bull shark virtually snapping at his feet. Watch how nonchalant he is about those snapping jaws.

Keep in mind this is in inches of water. Memo to self: No wade-fishing on the Great Barrier Reef.

The angler is Capt. Glanville Heydenrych; the operation is Nomad Sportfishing Adventures (featured in Sport Fishing in 2010).
