Shark Attack Survivor Shares Brave Story | Washington DC News

A 22-year-old Georgia man, Jacorey High, narrowly survived a terrifying shark attack in Daytona Beach while swimming with his pregnant fiancée—saving her by pushing the shark away before fighting it off. The bite tore through his leg, causing severe bleeding he didn’t realize until he got out of the water. After emergency surgery, doctors warned of a three-month recovery ahead. Though the shark’s species remains unknown and lasting damage is uncertain, High’s heroic instinct to protect his fiancée in the chaos stands out. With only 60-65 unprovoked shark attacks reported globally each year, this rare event underscores the ocean’s unpredictable danger—and High’s courage in the face of it.
