The horror, the horror.
If there is one thing that unites all humans, be they Antifa or Proud Boy, Brexiter or Continentalist, it is the nightmare of being chased by someone, or something, and only being able to run in very slow motion.
Well, a New Zealand man lived our collective horror in real life.
There he was, enjoying a warm summer’s day at the popular Ōhope Beach with other revelers. Warm water, beautiful sun but… SHARK!
The shout went up and the man looked over his shoulder then started that very slow motion run. The fins get closer, man running slow, stuck in quicksand, absolute nightmare.
Did he survive?
Let’s ask Phil Squire who caught the whole action with his 15-year-old daughter Eliza. Word had been spreading that sharks were present but that didn’t stop the Squires from getting it.
“(My daughter) was a bit nervous, she was definitely staying on her board with the possibility of sharks and stingrays around … but I think it added to the excitement. We did a lot of surfing around those beaching but weren’t dipping our toes in, in case they got nibbled.”
The possibility of sharks and stingrays adding to the excitement of surfing? Very brave and maybe she can life coach Pip Toledo or other professional surfers who need a jolt.
In any case, the shout went up and Phil Squire saw the man freaking out, trying to run, and make it to the beach.
Eliza filmed with a steady hand.
He made it will all toes intact though acted panicky.
Not brave like the young Squire.
Watch here.
Yep, it’s actually a Thresher shark ,harmless – enough of this shark shit BG
Soz…just still can’t get over that leash grab.

Did you know that when you’re at the beach and you find a live crab, if you hold it up close to your ear you can hear what it’s like to get attacked by a crab.
An EX of mine used to have a tattoo of a shell on her inner thigh, if you put your ear up to it you could smell the ocean
With my ex it was fish.
That little gamelan intro made me long for a smoky dirty cheap holiday on a tropical island.
Would have been better if he accidentally had the cat filter on
At :28, it looks as though the poor bastard figures there’s zerŌhope and offers up his face as a tasty morsel for the toothy victors.
what caliber would take those pointers out?
I’d shoot it a menacing stare, followed by a warm, friendly embrace. Sharks can’t stand hugs, mostly cause they can’t hug back.
You a hugger in real life with your bros, or is that too homoerotic and you’re a 1 hard slap to the back and immediately move 2 feet apart type of guy?
A firm handshake. A save my hugs for my mum.
Fuck that. We ever meet u r getting a hug and then we’re going for a surf.
boy, you try to hug me and you can bet I’m gonna Koa Rothman’s Winter at Pipe ya all surf sesh long.
You’re old so I’ll just out paddle you. Who am I kidding. Been flat for 3 months here. I don’t even remember how to sit on a board anymore.
Solid dig at Felipe. 8/10
Try snapping at the heels of Jake Heke and see how far you get.
