Great white shark leaps onto Australian fisherman's boat

An Australian fisherman caught a far bigger fish than he hoped for when a 2.7-metre (nine-foot) great white shark leapt into his boat, knocking him off his feet.

Terry Selwood, 73, was left with a badly bruised and bleeding right arm where the airborne shark struck him with a pectoral fin as it landed on him on the deck of the 4.5m (15ft) power boat on Saturday off Evans Head, 450 miles north of Sydney.
