No animals were hurt in the taking of these amazing pictures - because the scariest predators on Earth sunk their razor-sharp teeth into a dummy seal.

Displaying their athleticism, these Great Whites soar through the air and reach heights of 8ft.

At 14ft-long, these 350st (2250 kg) beasts are performing breaching, one of many killer moves in the Great White's arsenal.

Seal deal: Great White sharks hunt by hitting seals from below with enormous force and clamping their jaws down on them - the technique is called breaching

Life’s a breach: These photographs were taken by photographer Chris Fallows and his wife Monique at Seal Island near Cape Town

Flying game: No seals were harmed on the expedition as the sharks are biting a decoy seal made out of carpet

With a beautiful South African backdrop, the majestic animals demonstrate their deadly technique in front of photographer Chris Fallows.

Chris and his wife, Monique, took the shots at Seal Island in False Bay, whilst out on an expedition boat in the South African waters.

No seals were harmed on the expedition as the sharks are biting a decoy seal made out of carpet - this is used to attract sharks to the surface.

Keeping their distance: The photographers were in a boat around 60 feet from the Great Whites

Air we go: The Great Whites are capable of clearing the water by eight feet

Snap happy: Mr Fallows said the sight of the sharks was 'just magical'

The South African couple have worked at Seal Island as wildlife photographers for 18 years and run shark expeditions for shark-spotters.

Chris, 42, said: 'To see one of the worlds greatest predators flying through the air with beautiful light highlighting the animals beauty was simply magical.

'My favourite picture is the one of the shark completely clear of the water as it really shows the althleticsm of the shark.

'It is also a shark that is well known and has the name Bumps.

'We were in a boat and were roughly 60 ft away.

Magnet for sharks: Seal Island is a favourite hunting spot for Great Whites

'We are not scared of sharks as we work with them on a daily basis and understand that they are far more interested in eating seals than us.

'It was hunting and doing what it thought would be needed to catch what it believed was its prey.

'During the peak season of February to September there may be as many as 15 great white sharks hunting at Seal Island.'

Great White sharks hit seals with around 50 g-force, which is more than enough to render them unconscious instantly.

The average human will black out at around five g's, without the aid of protective clothing.
