Family captures dramatic shark feeding frenzy at Myrtle Beach
Going for a walk on the beach should be relaxing — except if you happen to spot about half a dozen sharks in a feeding frenzy. A family on vacation in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina captured the intense moment on video Monday morning.
Tara Savedge shared a wild photo of the moment on Facebook. "Who wants to see some sharks this morning?" she wrote.
Savedge told CBS affiliate WLTX that her son and nephew were skimboarding when they noticed a school of fish suddenly jumping wildly, followed by at least five sharks jumping in and out of the water as well.
"I've never seen sharks jump out of the water like that," she said. Her husband got the children out of the ocean while she captured a video of the frenzy.
Following the shark spotting, lifeguards evacuated the beach for around an hour, WLTX reported.
