Shark, surfer collide at Fort Pierce Inlet

In some places, a surfer falling off his board and onto a shark is front page news. But in the break along Eastern Florida, it's just another day in paradise.

Even so, it's rare when it is captured on video. But Jason Griffeth of Vero Beach, known on his YouTube and social media pages as Hydrophilik, was at North Jetty at Fort Pierce Inlet over the weekend where he captured on his drone video a surfer wiping out and landing seemingly on top or within inches of a shark.

Each February, a seasonal migration of blacktip sharks and other coastal sharks takes place along Florida's coast. Although there are a few bites each spring, considering there are tens of thousands of sharks in the water and tens of thousands of humans, there are amazingly few interactions.

Even celebrities and professional athletes can't help but get into the fun.

Still, if one plans to swim while on a trip to a Florida beach, it's probably best to watch those fingers and toes.
