A Florida paddleboarder who was unknowingly being trailed by a shark is crediting her husband with keeping her calm in the face of danger.<\/p>\n

Video showed a hammerhead shark<\/a> circling Malea Tribble and her group paddleboarders during a charity race 35 miles off the coast of Palm Beach County. After initially dismissing “taps” under her board, Tribble said she came to the realization she was being followed when her husband Rick started directing her back to the boat.<\/p>\n

“I knew by the tone of his voice to pay actually attention and listen, to do everything that he’s telling me to do in that moment,” Tribble told “The Faulkner Focus” Friday.<\/p>\n

“I do think it would have been a lot different had I known a lot more factors, but they kind of kept those things away from me \u2013 not telling me where it was, not telling me how big it was \u2013 trying to keep me calm during that whole scenario.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Tribble called the incident “surreal” and a first in the 10-year history of “The Crossing for Cystic Fibrosis<\/a>” event.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m still a little bit in shock that it happened to me,” she said.<\/p>\n

“I never, ever imagined to come into contact with a shark.<\/a>“<\/p>\n

Tribble said she re-entered the water 10 minutes after the shark swam away because those with cystic fibrosis cannot stop their treatment “in the face of fear.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“It wasn\u2019t an option to quit,” said.<\/p>\n

State leaders throughout the East Coast are warning of shark attacks<\/a>. Shirley County, N.Y., Executive Steve Bellone said the county is closing the beach due to shark bites for the first time. He announced that the Long Island county will incorporate shark incidents into their beach routines.<\/p>\n

As part of her safety procedures, Tribble said she never paddleboards alone, adding boarders “have to listen to the people you are around.”<\/p>\n

Travis Suit, the executive director for Crossing For Cystic Fibrosis, said in a statement, “We are grateful\u00a0Malea\u00a0was not harmed and so proud of the calm and disciplined response the Tribble\u2019s had during the situation as paddle mentors in this event, providing a great example of how to handle close encounters like this. We are visitors when we are in the ocean, it\u2019s really their home, so it\u2019s to be expected.”<\/p>\n

Tribble said she is unafraid of returning to the water and hopes others are not, either.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“You know you\u2019re in the ocean, you kind of know what you\u2019re up against, but it\u2019s a very rare occurrence,” she said.<\/p>\n

“My calmness kind of took over. It was instinct for me.”<\/p>\n
