An Australian man has been called "stupid" after filming himself swimming next to a great white shark off Sydney's coast yesterday.
A report from 9NEWS outlines how Jai Kiggins jumped into the water at Wattamolla Beach in the Royal National Park after hearing about a shark feeding frenzy on a whale carcass in the area.
"Probably one of the craziest things I've ever seen you know," Mr Kiggins told 9NEWS . "The great white came straight up like, face to face and then just turned and kicked away."
While he admitted that swimming next to a shark feeding frenzy was not the smartest move he said: "If you've got the balls to do it, I don't see why not".
Shaun Elwood , from NSW Office of Environment and Heritage, wasn't impressed with the men's stunt, simply calling the move "stupid".
