| Racy Ol' Lady ![]() | Pictured: The moment a 6ft shark leaps from wave as surfers paddle unaware just meters away By Daily Mail Reporter Last updated at 12:55 PM on 14th July 2008 A spinner shark was pictured leaping from the waves perilously close to care-free surfers in Florida earlier this month. Amateur photographer Kem McNair photographed the sharks on New Smyrna Beach on July 3. Aiming his camera at the waves McNair, 55, was alerted when something, literally, jumped into the frame. He said: "It was around 1 p.m and I had just come in from surfing, grabbed my camera and walked to the water line with my friend Skipper Eppelin, Enlarge Look out! The spinner shark leaps out of the Florida waters on New Smyrna Beach Enlarge Unaware: The surfers appear to have no idea the 6ft shark is right behind them in a scene reminiscent of the Jaws films Enlarge Hotspot: The beach is notorious for shark attacks as 12 people have been bitten this year alone He's behind you!

| Non-Commissioned Officer ![]() | One of many reasons I don't surf. I'm normally not afraid of fish, but sharks are a different matter. For some reason they think that things swimming around in the ocean are their lunch. |

| Non-Commissioned Officer ![]() | Sharks are delicious,but they think the same about us.I guess it would be a first strike scenario.I dont know how strong they are when you got one by the tail,but if it wasnt too deep and it wasnt too big,that shark could be a nice fish fry! |

| Racy Ol' Lady ![]() | They are very strong, John. If you got that flexible shark by the tail, he would turn and bite you in yours!

| Jr. Officer ![]() | "You're telling me, Marianne!" (I'm typing this in a soprano voice). I agree, it's better to catch and eat them than to be eaten. I fthey became a commercial fish product in the USA, as they are in Japan and Asian countries, they might almost be extinct.
