If you thought your day was bad, remember: it can always get worse as pro surfer Mick Fanning found out earlier today when during the final of the World Surfing League’s J-Bay Open in South Africa, he was attacked by a shark.
Perhaps for the first time ever, the stunning encounter was captured on live TV. But most amazing, after Fanning felt the shark attack, he “punched” the shark in the back, which then promptly lost interest and Fanning got away completely unscathed.
