Girl’s terrifying encounter with shark near swimmers at beach
A little girl’s day at the beach has been interrupted by a terrifying encounter with a shark.
Anela Rezentes, 6, was swimming at Kalama Beach, Hawaii, on the weekend when a shark bumped her from behind, KHON 2 reports.
Video obtained by the station shows Anela running in a panic as fins wave about wildly in the surf.
The shark splashed about between the girl and another man who was behind her.
“My soul left my body,” she boasted to KHON 2.
“I was very scared.”
Anela Rezentes, 6, filmed fleeing a shark at Kalama Beach, Hawaii.
Anela ran to the shore. Her mum Sheri Gouveia said her daughter was “hysterical” when she got out of the water.
Ms Gouveia added she didn’t realise her daughter was running from a shark but managed to film the animal flailing behind Anela.
Anela, and her fellow swimmers at the beach, were unharmed.
Experts who have reviewed the footage said it’s believed the species of shark which bumped into the six-year-old is a blacktip shark which mostly feeds on fish and isn’t harmful to humans.
It’s likely the shark was simply chasing some fish when it ran into Anela.
