Florida spearfisherman’s chance encounter with great white shark

YouTube user mrputridinnards uploaded the above video to YouTube last week, which features a chance encounter with a great white shark at a depth of 170′. The spearfisherman was hunting amberjacks when the encounter occurred. Based on the verbal response of the diver/fisherman after the shark appears, it’s probably safe to say that he wasn’t expecting to come across a white shark on his dive. It sounds like he says something that rhymes with “duck,” but I can’t be certain.

Thanks to Shark Diver’s Underwater Thrills blog for bringing this one to our attention.
