17-year-old American has managed to fend off a shark that attacked her off the coast of Florida, writes lenta.ru.
The incident occurred on the beach in Destin, where a resident of Kentucky Caitlin Taylor rested with her mother and friends. When she walked into the water to the waist, she noticed an approaching wave. The girl decided that a dolphin was heading to her, and began to return to the shore.
However, in reality it turned out to be a shark, which, sailing to Taylor, grabbed her by the legs. To break free, Caitlin punched her on the front of her head. This caused the fish to open their jaws.
The county sheriff's office reported in Facebookthat, according to the girl’s friends, the length of the shark was about one and a half meters. Her view is not installed.
The shark's teeth pierced the skin in 6 places. “She was lucky that she didn’t hit the femoral artery,” one eyewitness noted. “Then everything would be more serious.” Doctors gave Caitlin 80 stitches.
