A great white shark decided to cause drama in this video taken in South Australia by fishermen in a very close encounter with the apex predator<br />This is the astonishing moment a huge great white shark does a “drive-by” beneath the boat of startled fishermen who clamor to film the encounter with the beast on their mobile phones.<br /><br />In the footage, three men can be heard laughing in shock and discussing the shark they just saw – which without their knowledge has turned back and is swimming straight towards them.<br /><br />Joking about the size of the supersized shark, one man said to his pal: “You said it was four foot and I looked behind and thought, ‘Get f***ed!’”<br /><br />"Yeah well I only saw it coming at us from that,” the other fisherman says while gesturing further out.<br />Then, apparently having a taste for drama as well as fish, the shark – which actually appears to be closer to 12ft long – returns.<br /><br />"Here it comes, here it comes," says one of the fishermen, as they all ready themselves and their phones for the second encounter.<br /><br />"It's coming straight at us isn't he?" one of the fishermen says as a dark shadow in the water edges closer and closer.<br /><br />The shark then pokes its fin through the surface of the water and gets within touching distance – before mysteriously disappearing beneath the boat.<br />Despite running around the other side of the deck, the fishermen cannot find the shark, which seems to have vanished silently into the depths.<br /><br />Reedy's Rigs shared the video on their Instagram account, with the caption "Great White shark does a drive-by", where it has been seen more than 500 times in just two hours.<br /><br />The video has already made an impression, with many people sounding jealous of the hair-raising encounter.<br />"Wow that’s pretty big," said an impressed viewer of the footage, which was filmed off the coast of South Australia.<br />Another fan and apparent shark-lover wrote: "That’s the best".<br /><br />This comes after a “battle-scarred” great white shark with shredded fins swam past cage divers in a stunning clip.<br /><br />And a diver claimed he was just "inches from death" when a great white shark suddenly charged towards him.<br />
