"Terrifying Shark Attack in Australia Captured on Film as Victim Loses Leg"

Matteo Mariotti, an Italian student studying marine biology in Australia, filmed the immediate aftermath of a shark attack that cost him his leg. The harrowing footage shows the shark tearing into his leg as he swam, leaving him in a cloud of crimson water. Mariotti's friend and diving instructor, Tommaso Agosti, quickly dragged him ashore and attempted to staunch the bleeding. Despite multiple surgeries, doctors were unable to save his leg, and it was amputated below the knee. Mariotti remains in high spirits and credits his late grandfather's spirit for guiding him through the ordeal. He now faces a challenging road to recovery with additional procedures planned for rehabilitation.
