Shark attack victim 'glad it was him'

Shark attack victim 'glad it was him' : "'If I didn't punch it, then I would have lost my leg and if it got my brother then he probably would have died, which is a lot worse.'"

The dive instructor thinks it may have been a barracuda rather than a shark. In any case, the parents of 15 year old Angus Chapman would have to be so very proud of him. He is such a capable and clear thinking child under extreme pressure. The fact he had the presence of mind to just act and give the shark a good wallop,then know he needed a tourniquet and through out all of that have his heart firmly centred on the safety of his little brother is quite something. His spirit needs to be bottled. What a kid!!
