A series of shark attacks off Australia's west coast have struck fear in the hearts of some of the world's top surfers, with at least two pro competitors voicing their concerns about getting back in the water.
Brazilian pro-surfers Italo Ferreira and Gabriel Medina took to Instagram on Tuesday to tell their fans they 'do not feel safe training and competing in this kind of place.'
The kind of place they're referring to is a pair of breaks off Gracetown, in Western Australia's south-west, where two other surfers were attacked by sharks during the Margaret River Pro competition, Nine News reports.
