Shark Attack

The final moments of the Shark that bit Ervin Maccarty.

The final moments of the Shark that bit Ervin Maccarty.

During a trip with his family to Marathon, Florida he suffered an accident that was caught on video. As Ervin went for a dive into the ocean from their boat, along with his son and others, a shark bit Ervin in the lower abdomen and wouldn't release its bite. [undefined]

The video begins with Ervin climbing up into the boat and holding the shark who grips his abdomen with its sharp teeth.

His friends begin to help him and lays on the floor.

While attempts were made to get the shark off of Ervin, the only solution they found was to kill the shark by slicing the side of its body and getting a deep stab with a knife in order to get the shark to release its jaws.

After the shark is stabbed, blood squirts out and begins to shake, gripping its bite even harder.

Eventually, after another slice and stab on the shark, he gives up before a last violent rattle, and dies.

The video has been shared all over the internet due to its disturbing content.
