A surfer from South Carolina has described what it felt like when he was bitten in the face by a shark in Florida.
Mark Summersett had fallen off his board after riding a wave in seven feet of water before the predator when the predator latched onto his face, leaving him needing 20 stitches.
“It was pressure, it was like a crunch. It felt like a bear trap crunching on my face,” the 38-year-old told WESH 2 News.
Mr Summersett is reportedly the seventh victim of a shark bite in 2023 off New Smyrna beach in Volusia County.
