After a Great White Shark bit him and carried him 16 feet through the ocean, a quick-thinking diver remembered playing dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Frank Logan was diving for sea snails at Bodega Rock in Sonoma County, California, when disaster struck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the source, he was viciously attacked by the super predator, leaving him with 18 individual tooth punctures across a 20-inch crescent-shaped wound across his torso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The diver, who was wearing a black wetsuit and snorkel, had been at a reef for 25 minutes with friends Floyd Blanchard and Bill Posten when a shark sank its teeth into his body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I felt something come down on my legs like a giant vice and then a crushing pain in my back and chest,” he explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When the shark began thrashing him around in his jaws, Frank decided to play dead and let his body go limp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Frank, 25, was then carried 16 feet through the water before the shark released him and swam away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Frank’s friends assisted in getting him to shore before driving him to the hospital, where surgeons repaired his wounds with over 200 sutures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Frank’s injuries indicated that the shark was about 13 feet long when he struck in 1968.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to William McKeever, author of Emperors of the Deep, Frank’s experience is proof.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
