A 14-year-old drone pilot says he feared for the worse as he filmed a “huge” white pointer shark swim underneath surfers in South Africa’s Western Cape region.
Zach Berman, an aspiring wildlife drone photographer, said he was monitoring shark activity with his father at Plettenberg Bay when the shark drifted into view.
“At first, I was struggling to comprehend what I was seeing,” he said. “It began to make its way towards the surfers and I feared for the worse; I really didn’t know what was going to happen.”
