Shark Turns on Teen!

A 15-year-old kid got bit by a shark Wednesday night when he tried to release it back into the ocean. (This isn’t him, but you get the idea…)

The kid had just spent 90 minutes reeling the shark in from the shore at a South Africa beach and was attempting to release it back into the ocean when it whipped around and bit him. The shark swam back out to sea leaving the teenager on the shore with bite marks on both his legs and his torso.

He was taken to a local hospital and was released around midnight.

The moral of the story… don’t touch sharks.
