SHARK CHARGES FLORIDA SURFER
He snaps photo, then punches shark in the face
September 12, 2010
(FLORIDA) -- Want to know how to survive a shark attack? Just punch that bad boy in the face when he charges you.
That’s what a Florida man, Kris Kerr, did to survive a recent shark attack.
But get this: as the shark was on the attack and headed right for him, Kerr had the cool, steely nerves of a pro shooter and actually got off a photo of the shark attacking moments before it made contact with him.
Kris Kerr and a friend Ethan Wilson were out over the weekend near Florida's Smyrna Beach, sort of the “shark bite capital of the world” as it were.
Kerr was in the water taking photos of Wilson surfing when he found himself facing a shark that was coming right at him.
So what did he do? He managed to punch the shark AND snap a photo of the encounter AND live through it.
And Kerr got out of the confrontation without so much as a scratch.
Kerr talked about the experience with CBS News.

Fair disclosure: you’ll need to sit through a 30-second TV spot before the story comes up.
