Watch terrifying moment great white shark circles kayaker before trying to take a bite out of his oar

Suddenly Matthew can be seen moving the oar as the shark jumps out of the water trying to grab it.

The clip finishes before the end of the attack but Matthew made it back to the shore safely.

He told the he knows he is “stupid” for going out into the water without a shark shield.

“I will definitely be investing in one now though,” he said.

The video was shared on social media and left people stunned.

Meanwhile, last week, a model has spoken out about the moment she came face to face with a 16ft shark - nicknamed Queen Nikki.

Chilling footage shows the huge tiger shark lunging towards Ocean Ramsey with open jaws as she prepared to dive into the ocean.

And another clip shows a massive great white shark leaping 15ft out of the sea just yards away from stunned surfers.

The huge sea creature stole the show during San Onofre Surfing Club's annual contest in San Diego County, California.
