Would you remove a hook from a shark's mouth to save it? This man did.

There’s a fisherman in Florida who dives with sharks every day in order to change people’s perceptions about the animals.

Michael Dornellas is part of the Spearheads group that records their spearfishing exploits online and they posted a video yesterday of him doing something that would strike terror into most people.

In the clip, the 30-year-old can be seen swimming with the creatures and "petting" them on the nose to put them into a trance-like state, before removing a fishing hook from the mouth of one of them with his bare hands.
