Shark thinks the kayak is prey, and the paddles the flippers...if the guy had paddled for land shark would bite the paddles...maybe bite and shake and if the kayak is capsized now you are upside down under water with your legs stuck in the kayak..if you can roll the kayak back upright while still inside it good for you, if not now you have to exit underwater, swim to the surface, flip the kayak over, get your arms over the deck in the right spot, kick yourself up onto it keeping your center of gravity low, swing yourself so you're straddling it, inch foward till your butt is over the cockpit, sit down, then stuff your legs back in..if you do this in panic frantic mode you'll just roll/flip/capsize and back into the drink you'll go...best to stop and pray and try to jab the shark in the snout/gills/head as hard as possible if need be...at one point dude was dipping the paddles in lightly to see if the shark would show itself, he had the paddle up like a spear ready to jab

That very thing happened in a kayak race in Aus just a couple months ago. It shot up from below and sent him and the kayak up in the air. The video I saw was from another competitor's GoPro, so you couldn't see the hit, but you could hear the commotion in the distance and he described it in a narrative. The dude somehow survived.

time to find another sport

The shark is probably calling his buddies like"Got a scared one here, thinking about tipping his kayak and eating him, want to join me?

"Emergency, emergency, emergency. I thought I'd give ocean kayaking a go but a Great White has made me realise that this kayaking thing is not really for me. You better hurry, it's an emergency cause he's hanging around me". I'm so glad I never pursued ocean kayaking! I'd poop my pants or die from a heart attack

I thought the same thing! Why is man surprised that there are sharks?

This white pointer is not attacking, only checking you out and perhaps tentatively testing what you are & your defense capability. Nerve wracking all the same. If is was an attack, it would charge you from depth directly below at considerable speed. You would not even know of it's presence until it lifted your whole kayak 10 feet or more out of the water and snapped it in two in an instant. That's how they typically take seals on the surface but a kayak is unfamiliar so it is being cautious (for a great white). Yeah, the thought of encountering them freaks me out too.

I was out in the Gulf of Mexico about a mile out and my kayak got bumped hard by a shark, a year later I was wade fishing at the beach and I got bumped in the back of the leg by a shark and fell down. I'm on or in the water a lot and those 2 experiences are always in the back of my mind every time I'm out, last time I went out I saw a massive shadow out of the corner of my eye a few feet from my kayak, it ended up just being a massive sea turtle but not gonna lie I felt my heart stop lol

If you cant handle a shark coming to inspect you on a small kayak, then you should not be out there that deep in the first place. You are in the deep water there and that's where the big Noah's hang around. You should just continue and try stay calm, if he wants to eat you...you will have to accept that fate and reflect back on your life choices.

The guy is clearly not being attacked. That shark was merely curious. Out in a kayak off the Aussy coast...what did he expect?

I bet that kayakers blood pressure went sky high 😂

Love reading these comments! You guys can act all big and mighty, sat behind typing away at your keyboard, but in reality such things as seeing a shark just at the side of you will make you scared and make you shit your pants! also, he is being safe by radioing in asking for help. So don't write stupid comments like "what was that bullshit" that bullshit was a life or death situation for this man, the shark could of been swimming behind or underneath the kayak,waiting for him to fall out for all we know. I am not ranting, I am just writing my own thoughts (which I guess is good and bad at the same time?), like what the rest of the people on the comments have done.

Had the shark knocked him off, it wouldn't automatically mean the shark would've attacked the kayaker. Many sharks knock into things then swim away. I'd say it would've been a 50/50 chance the shark would've come in for a bite, but not necessarily to kill him. Still, I was terrified to watch the camera move from left to right.

Seems like a safer bet to remain calm and try to break the surface as little as possible so the shark doesn't switch from curiosity to seeing him as prey, and simply wait for the boat. The noise of the boat will scare the shark off. Paddling and splashing around is a good way to make yourself look like more of a meal. The shark was just investigating the kayak to see what it was. Wasn't aggressive at that point, so why alter the situation and risk it becoming aggressive?

Looks like the shark followed him for only a minute because I never even saw a fin after the opening moments! The shark probably figured out that he wasn't his normal prey and moved on! Now a real encounter happened to my nephew's friend who decided that he was going to Kayak while everyone else was fishing in the big boat! Not 5 minutes after getting into the Kayak and he started paddling around he was sent 6 feet into the air by a 17 or 18 foot great white off the coast of northern California! My nephew got his friend out of the water and when they looked back at the Kayak the shark was having a good ole time pushing the Kayak around and even swatted it with his tail a couple of times! After about 10 to 15 minutes the shark moved on! This happened a couple of weeks ago! They are supposed to post a video of it!!!!
