Face to face with a great white shark

In a scene that could have come straight out of Jaws, two scuba divers in Mexico had a heart stopping experience when a 15ft great white shark slammed into their metal shark cage and ripped it open, leaving them stranded as bait.

The footage shows the 2 tonne predator feeding on tuna as the two men in wetsuits, who had paid about £2000 for the ‘ultimate shark diving experience’ watched from inside a six-year-old steel shark cage. As one of the divers kept filming the other managed to open the emergency escape hatch and the two were pulled to safety by crew members on board their boat, The Searcher.

The diver who posted the video online said the shark - apparently one of four great whites in the vicinity - was not angry or provoked, and was “definitely not attacking us or the cage”. “It is just that after it hit the tuna in front of the cage its eyes were closed to protect them. It hit the cage blind and then reacted,” said the diver, who was back in the water 15 minutes later.

“Nevertheless it scared the **** out of me!!!”

lucky nobody can hear you scream underwater or else they'll think there was a 6 year old girl in the cage.
