Hayden Panettiere Has Run-In With Shark

Hayden Panettiere has confessed that she recently had a run-in with a shark.

The ‘Heroes’ star, who spends a lot of her time protesting against whaling, told Jimmy Kimmel that she tends to attract sharks. Panettiere went on to recall one encounter in particular, saying: “This safety diver got in to take pictures of my brother and my mum and they had their fins on and when the shark comes too close, you put your fins in their face, and I didn’t have my fins on and all of a sudden – they start going, ‘Shark, right behind you!’

“I was going, ‘What could it be? Tiger shark, Mako, bull, Great White?’ I swam for my life… they were yelling at us because the worst thing to do is to swim away from the shark and make all the splashing.

“I was like, ‘Guys, you yelled shark… How else do people react?’ I practically walked on water back to the boat.”
