Lifeguard Survives Shark Encounter | Pittsburgh News

from Pittsburgh News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A Maine lifeguard with 55 years on the job had a heart-stopping weekend when a massive shark grabbed his rescue torpedo and pulled him under—only for him to swim safely back to shore. The beach was shut down for an hour as officials ramped up safety measures, including drones and jet skis, while swimmers are now limited to waist-deep water. This isn’t the first time sharks have been spotted in the area, but the incident is a chilling reminder that nature still holds some serious surprises.
