Surfer’s Leg Washes Up on a Beach After Great White Shark Attack
A 23-year-old surfer’s leg washed ashore after he was attacked by a great white shark Tuesday at an Australian beach.
Kai McKenzie managed to survive the attack by kicking the nearly 10-foot shark, but the animal still ripped off his leg, reported BBC. The surfer managed to use his damaged surfboard to ride back to shore where an off-duty police officer reportedly used a tourniquet to treat McKenzie’s wound.
McKenzie’s leg was put on ice, he and his limb were flown almost 125 miles away to a hospital. Doctors are now racing to reattach the leg.
