A surfer in Florida gets caught on camera with a 6ft Black Tip shark as he jumps out of the water. Smyrna Beach in Florida is known to the surfers as 'the sharkbite capital of the world'.

Personally I think the shark just wants to be in the photo, he did a good job of it anyway.

12 people have been bitten by sharks this year.

Mr Kem McNair the photographer said:

'These sharks are very very common in these waters but I have never captured pictures like these,'

'We see them all the time - if you ride a wave and the water is clear you may see two or three sharks in the length of one ride, and we see them jump numerous times a day.'
