Photographer Euan Rannachan managed to capture a stunning shot of a great white shark while shooting underwater off the coast of Mexico last year. After posting the image on social media, many were quick to point out the uncanny resemblance to the iconic “Jaws” movie poster. Fortunately, he was safely in a cage when the 17-foot female great white shark swam by with its mouth full of razor sharp teeth. Read more for the full image and additional information.
“We have these people on the boat called shark wranglers and they throw these two-foot chunks of tuna and get the shark close to the surface. Sometimes when the wranglers play with the sharks, the sharks get p**sed off and dive down under the boat and the bait so they can come rocketing up and get it. That’s exactly what [the shark] was doing here, she was fed up probably messing around on the surface and dived back down under the boat,” the photographer told The Sun via Peta Pixel.
