Ryan Hunt was surfing small waves in Australia at Wallabi Point Wednesday evening when he was bitten by a shark after he stepped on its head.

The 20-year-old was able to shake the shark off after it grabbed his left foot.

The unknown species of shark then hung around until “a few kicks to the head” sent it swimming off.

The experienced surfer who recently competed in Japan made it back to the beach, where he received first aid and was then taken to Manning Hospital.

Mr. Hunt posted a photo on Instagram with the caption “Apparently sharks like feet”

 

The incident has been marked on the 2014 shark bites attack map.
