When the shark bites....

Otago Museum, Dunedin.

This surf board belonged to Barry Watkins, a sixteen year old, wagging school to hang ten at St Clair. Barry survived the Great White attack and still surfs.

On display in Otago Museum's exhibition of gifts from benefactors.

Wow, that must have been a BIG shark. Great capture of this moment in history.

a tell-tale artifact of a harrowing encounter...eerie how the fin resembles a shark's...

You're many times more likely to get in a car accident than get bitten by Great White, but when the shark does bite... Very well photographed. "V"

This sight gets your attention. The surfer has more guts than brains.
