    London is to host the 2019 World Para-swimming Championships.

    The competition will take place at the London Aquatics Centre from 9-15 September after original hosts Malaysia were stripped of the right to host the event.

    Around 600 swimmers from 60 nations are set to take part in the Championships, which is a qualifier for the Tokyo 2020 Paralympics.

    The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) awarded the championships to London after failing to to receive necessary guarantees from the Malaysian government that Israeli para-swimmers could participate, free from discrimination, and safely.

    It will be the second time that Great Britain has hosted the championships after Glasgow in 2015.

    Thisย is a video from a camera attached to a great white sharkย off the coast of South Africa as it hunts for seals. The camera, which was designed to eventually fall off the dorsal fin and float to the surface after several hours, captured a previously unknown behavior of great whites, which surprisingly wasn’t reading, nibbling on and whispering sweet nothings in a loved one’s ear, or going vegetarian. No, the footage revealed that the sharks will actively hunt for seals in kelp forests.
