A brother and sister had a close call with a large shark that approached them while they snorkled almost 500 feet from the shore.
The kids’ mother said that while the encounter “rattled them pretty badly,” she was sure they’d be “back out there soon.” https://abcn.ws/30QI5CR

Good thing the shark didn't want to catch the Coronavirus.
Lol one time, I was snorkeling and these people were snorkeling and saying “I’m not going down there honey.” As dumb as I was, of course I go down into a underwater cave with these HUGE sharks just glare at me from in the inside of the cave. I go up to the top of the water and the two sharks come out. I got my butt out of there pretty quick😂
It might be the lighting, but I think it’s a lemon shark.
You know it's scary when abc simply replays the same clip
Hurry up before he takes your gun away from you and shoots ya in the back!😱
All it did was swim near them….
All they had to do was stay clam.
OMG!! Am so excited,am free from herpes virus and the result was amazing
It is the damn ocean for christ sake!
Lol, if that shark had any interest in them at all they wouldnt be able to swim away so effortlessly :P.
Too close for comfort in my eyes, I would have screamed too… how do u control fear? Spearfishing in d ocean might get u spearfished…
That shark should've rid the world of two more people.
Someone call Chris Hansen he needs to catch this Predator (Shark is the Predator)
Just FYI people …if you are in the water and in a similar situation, you don't have to shoot the shark. We are not on their menu of things they eat, so when they come close to us they are investigating what we are. Sharks don't have good vision up close so they follow their nose and if need be they will take a test bite of something to see if its something they would like to consume. This is where most of the shark bites occur. What you need to do is give them a quick nudge on the nose and they will leave you alone. Most of the time sharks will not approach you and will steer clear of humans. They are inquisitive and sometimes will swim close to check you out.
Now why not just shoot and kill the shark. Sharks are declining in population faster then any other species of the world's oceans. This is due to over fishing and pollution. Sharks play a vital role in the ecosystem of the ocean. They clean up most of the dead animal carcasses in the ocean and are generally the oceans garbage disposal for a lack of a better term.
That shark was white… I'm certain this was a hate crime.
I wonder what Russell was doing with that spear gun a few minutes before the shark came to investigate. "Hey Sis, lets go spear some fish in the ocean. It'll be cool!"
Is it normal to have a harpoon gun while swimming? Just wondering
Sharks are drawn to yellow this was there fault for invading the sharks home. Im just happy the shark didnt get murdered.
Wow.
Holy cannoli
Dont mean to be ru Dee e but they are pretty dumb if you see a shark you dont scream and seem vulnerable you slowly go to the shore
This chick screaming underwater lmao who is gonna hear you?
Damn the news can’t even get a title of a story right. They were clearly spear fishing
Wtf’. Put these two in jail’
