Surfer punches shark then catches wave

[Aiursrage2k]

A surfer fought off a large shark and then reportedly rode a wave to safety in Western Australia.

Michael Bedford was knocked off his board by the shark, believed to have been a great white, which then came back for a second charge, witnesses said.

But he punched the animal and then caught a passing wave to the shore, where friends used the board’s rope as a tourniquet for bite wounds on his leg.

“He gave it a good whack he reckons, a good punch and that doesn’t surprise me knowing Mick,” witness Lee Cummuskey told ABC.

I prefer not to punch sharks that approach me, but rather sissy slap them. More effective I think. :lol:
