A swimmer killed in Australia spent his final moments screaming for help and struggling to fight off a massive 14ft great white shark before being eaten alive as horrified witnesses watched on.
The man was taking an afternoon swim off Little Bay Beach when his life came to a tragic end in Sydney's first fatal shark attack in 60 years.
Shocking footage showed the predator thrashing around in the ocean and dragging its victim underwater as the sea turned red with blood, sparking panic on the shore.
The scenes were just as confronting for emergency service workers and lifeguards who were deployed in boats, rescue helicopters and on jet skis during a frantic search for the swimmer.
'Footage clearly shows a body, half a body being taken by a shark,' a police officer told colleagues over a scanner when human remains were found an hour later.
In the footage, a fisherman can be heard shouting 'someone just got eaten by a shark'.
The swimmer's remains were found in the water a short time afterward, New South Wales Police confirmed. Parts of a wetsuit were also recovered.
