Removing a Fishing Net Stuck in the Jaws of a Shark
Occurred on August 9, 2018 / Byron Bay, New South Wales, Australia
Info from Licensor: "I was guiding a dive to some customers in Julian Rocks, Byron Bay when I saw a Grey Nurse Shark with a fishing net hanging out from its mouth. I tried to take it out of his mouth and after a few tries, I was successful. It was a very dramatic and intense moment with a happy ending. Afterward, the shark returned and made some eye contact with me as a way to say thanks."
