Florida woman unwittingly trailed by shark during morning swim responds to seeing the terrifying video: 'I think I’m done with the ocean'
Screams interrupted a woman’s peaceful morning swim off the shores of Panama City Beach Wednesday. She was gliding through the serene water when calls from the beach grabbed her attention.Stan Battles watched the scene unfold from his balcony at the beachside Tidewater Resort. He saw the dark outline of the creature emerge below the surface near the swimmer, and filmed it lingering beside her—seemingly just a few feet away.
About 30 seconds into the clip, the slow-moving shark overtakes the woman. As she changes direction, still apparently unaware she’s picked up a shadow, the creature circles back toward her. At first, it seemed like nobody nearby the woman had noticed. “It was just kind of crazy,” he added. “Everyone on the beach, in the water, they had no clue.”
The woman quickly moves towards the shore and the shark seems to lose interest, heading back out towards the open water.
