NEW THIS AFTERNOON, A SOUTH FLORIDA DIVER CAME FACE TO FACE, WITH A GIANT SHARK WHILE DIVING OFF THE COAST. SUMMER: IMAGES SHOW THE MAN COMING DANGEROUSLY CLOSE TO THE PREDATOR, WHO MAY HAVE BEEN PREGNANT. WESH 2’S SANIKA DANGE SHARES THAT PHOTOGRAPHER’S INCREDIBLE STORY. >> WE WERE DOING OUR DRIFT OFF SHORE SANIKA: 55-YEAR-OLD CAPTAIN JOHN MOORE >> THE CURRENT WAS RUNNING A STRONG HEADED NORTH. SANIKA: WAS TAKING ON A NEW DEEP SEA ADVENTURE. >> WE WERE FREE DIVING, SO THING WE’RE WEARING IS YOUR SNORKEL GEAR IN A WETSUIT WHEN HE HAD NO IDEA WHAT HE WAS ABOUT TO CAPTURE WOULD SOON GO VIRAL CAPTURING THE ATTENTION OF PEOPLE ALL AROUND THE WORLD. EVERY DAY IS DIFFERENT OUT THERE. SANIKA: WITH THE WATER TEMPERATURE BETWEEN 70 AND 80 DEGREES AND IMPECCABLE VISIBILITY HE SAW IT. FEEDING ON BAIT FISH OFF THE COAST OF JUPITER A MASSIVE BULL SHARK. OVERSIZED FOR ITS SPECIES. >> SHE WAS KINDA UNIQUE THAT SHE CAME POWERING RIGHT UP THROUGH THE OTHER BULLS. SHE WAS SUPER DOMINANCE IS KIND OF RIGHT IN THE FOREFRONT OF EVERYTHING. SHE WAS SWIMMING RIGHT UP TO MY MASK AND JUST KIND OF SIZING UP WHAT WAS GOING ON OUT THERE SHE WAS JUST SO IMPRESSIVE. SANIKA: MOORE CAME FACE TO FACE WITH WHAT APPEARED TO BE A PREGNANT SHARK. CLOSE ENOUGH TO SEE ITS RAZOR-SHARP TEETH AND YELLOW-TINTED EYES. FOR 45 MINUTES HE DRIFTED JUST INCHES FROM THIS APEX PREDATOR. >> SHE LOOKED LIKE SHE WAS READY TO POP SHE WAS ALMOST LIKE ROUNDS SHE WAS SO BIG. SANIKA: HIS CLOSE RANGE PHOTOS SHOW JUST HOW MASSIVE THE SHARK REALLY WAS. LOOK HERE YOU CAN SEE HOW TINY MOORE APPEARS NEXT TO THIS SHARK. MOORE STANDS 6FEET TALL. SO THAT GIVES YOU AN IDEA OF WHAT HE WAS FACED IT. >> A LOT OF PEOPLE HEAR THE WORD BULL SHARK AND THEY THINK SCARY INTIMIDATING PREDATOR. I DONT SEE THEM LIKE THAT AT ALL. SANIKA: FLORIDA HAS THE HIGHEST CONCENTRATION OF LARGE SHARKS ALONG ITS SURROUNDING COASTLINE THAN ANYWHERE ELSE ON THE EAST COAST. BULL SHARKS ARE BELIEVED TO BE ONE OF THE MOST AGGRESSIVE SHARKS IN THE OCEAN. USUALLY BIG IN SIZE AND TRAVEL IN PACKS. BUT THIS WASNT YOUR TYPICAL BULL SHARK THAT COULD WEIGH OVER 1,500 POUNDS. OH NO, THIS FEMALE SHARK WAS MUCH LARGER. SO ITS A SPECIAL KIND OF PERSON WITH WHOLE LOT OF COURAGE AND A TAD BIT OF CRAZY TO CAPTURE A MOMENT AS MAJESTIC AS THIS. >> IT REALLY IS NOTHING. WHAT I DO I DONT SEE MORE DANGEROUS. THEN WHAT A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE DO. SUMMER: MOORE IS AN EXPERIENCED DIVER, PHOTOGRAPHER, AND CONSERVATION ADVOCATE WHO HOPES HIS WORK WILL BRING AWARENESS ABOUT THE SPECIES THAT MANY PEOPLE FEAR. MEREDITH: MANY IT WAS CALLED BECAUSE HE WAS CALM, I DON’T KNOW. IT ALSO LOOKED LIKE A GREAT WHITE, I’M SURPRISE IT WAS A BULL SHARK. SU
