A man in Australia has captured terrifying footage of a shark biting another shark in half.



Fisherman Wes Jones was working off Exmouth in Western Australia when he witnessed a hammerhead shark attacking a whaler shark right next to their boat.

Jones told PerthNow he was fishing for blue marlin with his girlfriend, when a whaler got caught on his fishing line.

A 3m hammerhead which had been circling their boat seized the opportunity to strike.
