A shocking video has emerged online showing the moment a 200-pound nurse shark launched a scuba diver in the Maldives.
The snorkeler, Carmen Canovas Cervello, was in the bay at Vaavu Atoll swimming with sharks for over 45 minutes when the shark attacked her, injuring her shoulder and upper back and causing a six-inch bite mark.
“There were around ten nurse sharks, from 198-pounds to 220-pounds and over three meters wide”, she said after the incident.
Canovas Cervello said that after the shark bite, she thought “nothing major about it as it was only a minor injury so we cleaned the wound and continued snorkeling at the same spot again.”
