A video captured near Patrick Air Force Base apparently shows a large shark swimming surprisingly close to the shoreline.

Reader Jason DeBoer shared the video of the shark with FLORIDA TODAY.

DeBoer spotted two sharks swimming close to the beach on Saturday (Aug. 9). The video shows the larger of the two at around 2 p.m., just after the low tide.

DeBoer said both sharks swam close to the shoreline for more than an hour.
