    It’s shark versus jet ski! This man is lucky to be alive after a shark took a bite out of his jet ski. The close encounter happened off the coast of Australia when the jet skier decided to do circles around a 10-foot-long bull shark. The animal didn’t like the motion of the ocean created by the watercraft, and said no way! The big bite showed him who’s boss when it comes to the ocean. Better the jet ski than the jet skier.
