Tiger shark charges unsuspecting swimmer in chilling drone video | New York Post

Swimmers at Hillary’s Dog Beach near Perth, Western Australia, came dangerously close to death on Dec. 28 after a tiger shark was spotted lurking near the shore.

Heart-stopping drone footage captured by beachgoer Sam Wood shows the giant predator in the clear and iridescent Aussie waters — just meters from unsuspecting bathers.

At one point, the shark can be seen charging toward one woman before it drastically does a U-turn, deciding it’s uninterested in her.

“I was worried that this could be an attack, and obviously I was quite scared,” Wood told a local news outlet following the shark sighting.

It was like looking at a predator stalking their unsuspecting prey preoccupied looking at their phone in the streets of NYC.

You can even see at the :09 mark when the woman turns her body the shark immediately jerks its head away like "who me? I'm not even here - sorry for bothering you, I'll show myself out". Tabloids tabloiding once again.

Folks should start watching their videos before titling them. Someone must have got this video confused with another one in which someone was "charged" by a shark.

[kravdraa]

There are sharks in the sea and sometimes people go swimming...who'd have thought?

[HPDrifter]

I must have missed the new definition of "charging."

[SouthsideVirginia]

This why I don't get in Beach water anymore never know what's going to happen to you 💯

[shepo]

LIES!! That shark absolutely did NOT charge anyone because humans are not on their menu, period. The ocean is their home. They are incredibly curious animals by nature.
