Australian Woman Pulled in Water by Sharks, Miraculously Survives! Watch Video
Brunning has sustained cuts, a fracture, a torn ligament and a bad infection on her finger and it is miraculous how she has her finger intact.
An Australia woman had a terrifying experience when she almost could have lost her life to marine giant, shark. The woman was at fault and learnt a lesson for a lifetime. Melissa Brunning was feeding the sharks in northwestern Australia when a shark bit her finger and pulled her in. It was a terrifying moment, and she could have lost her finger, but her friends were quick enough and pulled her up just in time. Had it been little late, she would have been taken in by the two- metre marine animal. The waters in the region have crocodiles in them, so she could have fallen a dirty prey to marine life. 20-Year-Old Survives a Shark, Bear & Rattlesnake Bite, in Just Less Than Three Years: View Pics.
Mellisa Brunning was on a yacht in the remote Kimberley region about 2500 kilometres north of Perth. She tried to hand feed the sharks that were near their boat. Instead of throwing the bait at a distance, she tried to hand feed them and no wonder, when the shark tried to catch hold, her finger was pulled. The shark sucked her right index finger pulling her in the water like a vacuum. Talking about the attack, she was quoted to a newspaper, "I think the shark was in shock as much as I was... the only way I can describe it is this immense pressure and it felt like it was shredding it off the bone." She started screaming but the boat crew and her friends tried to pull her on board, and she narrowly escaped.
