Check Out This Video Of A Great White Shark Getting Up Close And Personal

Recently Discovery Channel’s Shark Week which we all know and love unveiled an amazing photo of a 14 and a half foot great white shark getting rather too close to a cameraman. The man in question, David Riggs is seen holding his camera in the photo which appears to show the great white about to attack.

Mr. Riggs said he wasn’t worried when the photo was taken because he knew the shark was actually just curious about the boat and its crew off the coast of South Australia

“Of course, great whites don’t have hands, so, she was researching the area in the only way she knows how and that’s with her mouth,” Mr. Riggs said.

It is truly amazing to see such an wonderful species get so close for the perfect photograph.

Riggs adds, “The photograph is quite dramatic but it really highlights how awesome these apex predators are, particularly over here in Southern Western Australia.”
