A surfer at New Smyrna Beach, FL was suddenly thrown off his board after spinner shark propelled itself into the air and knocked directly into the man’s head last week in an insane caught-on-video encounter.
Darren Kaye was surfing when he found himself head to head with the shark.
“I got right back on that board and my pulse went to like 195 beats a minute in a second and I paddled as fast as I could like out of the way,” he told local news.
He said the immediate impact felt more like being slammed by a car — a feeling he knows all too well.
