A spearfisherman who was bitten by a shark off the coast of Florida was saved by a pair of nurses aboard a boat that rescued him, according to a report.

The 40-year-old man was attacked while diving near Key Biscayne on Saturday morning, according to ABC News.

He got into a boat with his friends, before they flagged down a passing charter fishing boat that happened to have a pediatric nurse and an operating nurse aboard, the report said.

“He just repeated ‘shark’ and ‘help me’ over and over,” one of the nurses, Christine Haines, told the network.

The nurses immediately applied a tourniquet to the diver’s arm, while a charter boat employee, Kayle Evans, rinsed off the blood.

“He was wearing a wet suit, but he had bite marks in about three different places,” recalled Haines.

“He had muscle and skin hanging off. The teeth marks were in his hand and skin was hanging off. There was quite a lot of blood.”

The boat’s captain, Sig Ozols, called 911. They met paramedics 20 minutes later at a nearby coastal state park.

“We were there for a reason, and we made it happen,” the captain told WPLG. “I hope he’s OK.”

The spearfisherman was bitten about 250 miles south of Florida’s New Smyrna Beach, where three people were chomped on by sharks over the weekend.
