A 10-foot great white shark was spotted swimming alarmingly close to a group of young swimmers along the Southern California coastline<\/a> \u2014 with the children appearing completely unaware of the predator nearby.<\/p>\n

The encounter was captured on drone video<\/a> by Carlos Gauna, a wildlife photographer known as the “Malibu Artist,” who said it was one of the few times he felt genuinely uneasy while observing sharks.<\/p>\n

“I don’t often get nervous, but this was one of those rare instances where I did,” Gauna wrote on Instagram. “The young swimmers had no idea.”<\/p>\n

The shark had a large boat propeller strike wound across its back and dorsal fin, Gauna said \u2014 which he believes may have affected its behavior.<\/p>\n

“My observations showed the shark to be rather active,” he wrote, adding that he watched it breach twice in one day.<\/p>\n

“Because of the injury, I don’t know if it’s searching for easier prey or if it’s more alert,” Gauna also wrote. “Either way, this shark does approach humans at a higher frequency. At least by my observations.”<\/p>\n

The wild video sparked hundreds<\/a> of comments \u2014 with many viewers saying they would immediately leave the water if they noticed a drone hovering overhead.<\/p>\n

“If I’m swimming and see a drone over me, I’m out of there,” one user commented.<\/p>\n

Others said the footage showed that great white sharks often investigate people without attacking.<\/p>\n

“It just proves they aren’t interested in us,” one viewer wrote. “It went to see what the splashing was and turned away. It still had my heart racing, though.”<\/p>\n

Several commenters also suggested that beachgoers should be alerted when sharks are spotted nearby, with some proposing warning lights or audible signals to help swimmers safely exit the water.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital previously reported that shark experts have urged beachgoers to stay alert<\/a> this summer as sightings increased along several U.S. coastlines.<\/p>\n

Marine biologist Mike Heithaus of Florida International University told Fox News Digital that shark bites remain unusual, even during the busy summer beach season.<\/p>\n

“People should always be aware of local conditions and\u00a0listen to lifeguards<\/a>, but shark bites are very rare,” he emphasized.<\/p>\n

He recommended that people avoid murky water, that they stay away from areas where large schools of fish are visible and that they avoid places where other people are actively fishing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
