Great white shark jumps into fisherman's boat, injuring 73yo man

A fisherman has lived to tell the tale of how he ended up with a great white shark in the bottom of his boat.Terry Selwood, 73, was fishing offshore at Evans Head on the New South Wales north coast when the shark launched itself into his boat.

"I caught a blur of something coming over the boat … and the pectoral fin of the shark hit me on the forearm and knocked me down on the ground to my hands and knees," Mr Selwood said.

"He came right over the top of the motor and then dropped onto the floor. He was 2.7 metres long and about 200 kilos."

The boat measured 1.4 metres across and 4.5 metres long — a tight squeeze for a man and a shark.

"There I was on all fours and he's looking at me and I'm looking at him and then he started to do the dance around and shake and I couldn't get out

Just the other night,on our nightly news, it showed a great white attacking a kayak and tearing it to pieces. Fortunately, the man was picked up by a nearby boat. I don't remember where this took place.
 

..That sounded pretty awesome. Never heard of anything quite like that ever happening before. But then again...i had never heard of a fox attacking a man sleeping on a park bench, and trying to bite his ears off, either, as what apparently happened in England earlier this year. Maybe it`s the beginning of a kind of wild life ''revolution''...to get back at the human species as a revenge for centuries of persecution...!!

It would not be undeserved
