Caught on Tape: Naked Fisherman Rescued As Sharks Circle Around Him

by Fox News Insider // Aug 10 2012 // 11:32am

In Australia, a fisherman found himself stranded in the ocean with sharks circling around him. After the boat he was in sank, he survived by treading water for hours and it was all caught on video by a news crew. He ended up losing his clothing in the ordeal.

One of the crew members can be heard on the tape saying,

“We just spotted a massive hammerhead shark just circling around him, probably about 20 meters from him. He’s putting his hands together praying … He’s yelling ‘Help!’” The rescue crew ended up pulling him to safety. There were two other fisherman on the boat before it sank; one of them died, and one of them is still missing.
