Spearfisherman BARELY Escapes An Angry Bull Shark Attack

Bull sharks are notoriously grumpy, and have been known to attack surfers, swimmers, divers, and anglers almost untriggered. This bull shark ran into one quick-thinking spear fisherman, or aquaman in a spear-fishing suit, and we got ourselves a full on underwater man vs shark battle.

The shark charges at full speed, which is pretty incredible to see underwater. He covered ground from the depths that had him looking like a mini version to taking up almost the entire screen in less than 3 seconds. That kind of closing speed is what makes them vicious predators beneath the surface, both to smaller fish and humans.This human had lightning fast reaction speed, able to shove his spear right into the mouth of the bull shark. Had that spear gone under or over the mouth, this might be a completely different story. Blocking its ability to bite was crucial, and luckily he was able to swim away to safety.Reason #34856983475 why I don't swim in the ocean:
