Florida Man Airlifted to Hospital After Posing for Photo With Shark [View all]

What a dope.



A Florida fisherman took too long posing with a shark for a photo and the creature took a chunk out of his leg.

Footage of the incident has gone viral on social media, showing Shawn Meuse getting attacked by the lemon shark while in the Boca Grande.

While on a torchlit beach, Meuse has the shark by its nose as he poses for a photo. His friend then comes up behind and grabs the shark’s tail which causes it to whip around and chomp on Meuse’s leg. He screams out in agony as the shark wriggles back into the ocean. Meuse can later be seen sitting in the surf with his leg bleeding as his friends shout, “Oh my God, Oh my God.”
