Diver's incredible three-word reaction after shark drags her underwater in horror GoPro video
Sam Anderson and Jasmine Warneford were diving in water near Red Bluff in Western Australia when a huge tiger shark appeared and began to drag Jasmine underwater
Two spearfishers have been lucky to escape a terrifying encounter with a massive tiger shark off the remote coast of Western Australia.
Sam Anderson and Jasmine Warneford were diving near Red Bluff — a popular but isolated camping and surfing spot around 1,020km north of Perth — on April 21 when the shark suddenly appeared. It first attempted to snatch their catch before turning aggressively toward Mr Anderson, approaching with its jaws wide open before he managed to fend it off with his spear.
As the shark swam away, it latched onto a fish attached to Ms Warneford's float line. The rope, still tied around her waist, dragged her about 10 metres underwater before she managed to cut herself free.
The harrowing moment was captured on Ms Warneford's GoPro, showing her being flipped over and pulled beneath the surface while Mr Anderson frantically swam to help.
However, Ms Warneford appeared unfazed by the encounter. After sharing the shocking footage on Instagram, one pal commented: "Omg!!! Bet you loved it though," to which she replied: "you know me x."
It comes just days after a dad-of-four was horrifically killed by sharks at a popular tourist destination after he desperately tried to fight the predators off with his GoPro.
Barak Tzach, aged 40, has now been confirmed as the man who died following a two-day search.
Police have confirmed remains that had been found at the site of the attack on Israel's Mediterranean coast matched those of Barak Tzach, from Petach Tikva.
Distressing footage shows the moment the man appeared to be battling with the predator in the sea off Hadera, Israel, in front of horrified crowds.
Forensic tests conducted at the Abu Kabir Institute later confirmed the remains belonged to Tzach, who had entered the water armed only with 'a mask, snorkel, fins and a GoPro camera – without any fish or bait.' His final moments were caught on footage showing him thrashing in the water before it turned red.
A relative told Israel National News: "In a conversation I had with a fisherman who witnessed the incident. I was told that he swam alongside the shark and later moved a little further out.
"He photographed the sharks from a distance, but did not touch them or feed them. When they started getting too close to him, he used the stick of the GoPro camera to gently push them away."
Witnesses described hearing the swimmer's desperate screams for help as he shouted "they're biting me" before he started thrashing around and was pulled under the water. Moments before the attack the shark was filmed swimming between children's legs in the sea in the shallow waters as stunned beachgoers watched on, unable to help.

I was 15 when my nude pics were leaked – grown men sent them around at the football club & everyone blamed ME
NOT KIDDING I was 15 when my nude pics were leaked – grown men sent them around at the football club & everyone blamed ME Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LIKE many young girls, Jess Davies wanted to impress her school crush and decided to send him an explicit photo of herself. Little did the 15-year-old know that he would send it around the school and she would become a victim of image abuse. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Jess Davies revealed her nude photo was leaked at just 15-years-old Credit: Instagram/jessdavies "That image got bluetoothed around my school, and then it got shared around my hometown, which was a small hometown in Wales, everyone knows everyone," she explained on the Should I Delete That podcast. Image-based sexual abuse is a criminal offence, it's when someone takes, shares, or threatens to share sexually explicit images or videos of a person without their knowledge or consent, and with the aim of causing them distress or harm. This can include digitally altered images, also known as 'deepfakes' - something Jess has gone on to lobby the government to include in the Online Harms Safety Bill. Now 32, Jess has opened up about the trauma it caused and more shockingly, how she was blamed for the abuse. She revealed that once the photo had circulated in her hometown, it was then shared to grown adult men on the local football team. Instead of seeing Jess as a victim, whose private photo was shared without her consent, people blamed her. "Everyone knew my age because it was a small town, and yet, the whole narrative was around how it was my fault," Jess added. "That I shouldn't have sent it, what kind of girl are you? "There was never any conversation around why are men in their twenties and thirties passing around a child's image?" Jess was left as a teenage girl worrying about how to navigate the situation, and she decided she had to laugh it off. 2 Now, she advocates for sexual abuse victims Credit: Instagram/jessdavies Vicky Pattison shares deepfake porn clip of herself as she warns of dangers on C4 doc She revealed that boys in year 7 would run up and ask for a hug as they had seen the image as well. "I was laughing but secretly, this was humiliating," she said. In the end, her parents also found out about the image, as her nan was told about it from one of the men on the football team, where the image was being circulated. Now, as Jess has gotten older, she realises that the way people treated her for the image was not okay and that she was held more accountable than the grown men sharing the image. It has now led Jess to become an advocate for female rights and sexual abuse. Her BBC documentary 'Deepfake Porn: Could You Be Next' was used to lobby the UK government to criminalise deepfake porn. Jess also has a new book, No One Wants To See Your Dick, a guide for surviving the digital age to help us understand and tackle online misogyny and question society's understanding of consent.

Two men jailed for life for supplying car bomb that killed Daphne Caruana Galizia
Two men have been sentenced to life in prison for supplying the car bomb that killed the anti-corruption journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia in Malta eight years ago. The sentencing on Tuesday of Robert Agius and Jamie Vella, reported to be members of the island's criminal underworld, marked a significant step in the long campaign to bring those charged with Caruana Galizia's murder to justice. Her death in October 2017 sparked outrage across Europe and embroiled Malta's governing party in accusations of a coverup, ultimately leading to the resignation of the prime minister Joseph Muscat. Prosecutors have brought charges against seven people, including a millionaire businessman who is still awaiting trial. Agius and Vella, who had pleaded not guilty, were sentenced after their conviction on Friday last week. Jurors returned an 8-1 verdict after a trial that lasted more than six weeks. They were found to have taken payment for supplying the device, which was hidden in a children's shoe box and planted under the seat of the journalist's car. It was detonated remotely as she drove away from her home. Under Maltese law, those serving life sentences remain in prison until death. They are not eligible for parole or any other form of early release. Prosecutors had argued on Tuesday that the punishment should send a strong message to the public, both locally and internationally. Press freedom groups across Europe have followed the case closely. 'We hope that today's sentences will be a step towards a safer world for journalists by signalling to potential killers that there are heavy penalties to pay when a journalist is murdered,' Caruana Galizia's family said in a statement. 'The car bomb attack that killed Daphne sent shock waves through Maltese society that reverberated around the world. Her assassination created a sense in society that the people behind her murder were sure of their impunity and that the institutions that were duty-bound to protect her and society had failed.' Two men accused of planting and detonating the device, brothers George and Alfred Degiorgio, are serving 40-year jail terms after pleading guilty. A third man, Vince Muscat, who also admitted his role in the murder, is serving 15 years after turning state's evidence. Melvin Theuma, a taxi driver who claims he acted as middleman, secured a presidential pardon in exchange for giving evidence and is living under police protection. Sign up to This is Europe The most pressing stories and debates for Europeans – from identity to economics to the environment after newsletter promotion Yorgen Fenech, the heir to a casino and hotels group, was arrested and charged with complicity to kill Caruana Galizia in November 2019. He denies the charges. Delays in bringing the case before a jury have allowed his lawyers to successfully argue for bail, and he was released in February after pledging €50m (£42m) in cash and shares as security. Because they pleaded not guilty, Vella and Agius were the first among the accused to actually stand trial. They were arrested in 2021, based on evidence provided by Muscat. His testimony was crucial in trial, which heard from 157 witnesses, including the victim's families and members of the FBI, which had assisted local police with the investigation. The court heard that the original plan was to shoot the journalist, with Vella providing the hitmen with rifles and an AK-47. The plans were changed, however, and the killers opted for a bomb instead. It was placed in her car during the night and detonated remotely the next day, using a command sent via text message by George Degiorgio while he was cruising aboard a motor boat. Prosecutors told the court that the motive for the murder was Caruana Galizia's 'journalistic work'. In the same trial, Vella was convicted of complicity in a second, unrelated murder – the killing in 2015 of a Maltese lawyer, Carmel Chircop. Robert Agius's brother Adrian and George Degiorgio were also found guilty of complicity in the same crime.

Glasgow teacher struck off after OnlyFans page discovered
Kirsty Buchan, 39, from Coatbridge, North Lanarkshire, resigned from Bannerman High School in Baillieston in December 2022, following the exposure of her online activity. The General Teaching Council for Scotland (GTCS) has now ruled that her conduct amounted to professional misconduct, formally removing her from the register. READ MORE: Circumstances surrounding Cole Cooper's disappearance 'remain unexplained', cops say The BBC reported that GTCS found that Buchan had failed to conceal her identity or her profession while running an explicit OnlyFans account under the alias Jessica Jackrabbit, which she also promoted publicly on Instagram. Her profile described her as a "good teacher gone bad" with a "sexy tight body." According to Gary Burton, solicitor and presenting officer for the GTCS, Buchan "used her profession as a selling tool" and demonstrated "zero insight into her conduct." He added that there had been a significant blurring of her professional and private life, and that the school had become 'synonymous with having an OnlyFans teacher.' The panel concluded that Buchan's behaviour "lacked integrity" and recommended a two-year minimum before she could reapply for registration—if ever. Prior to the GTCS's decision, Ms Buchan told BBC News she felt there was no point in going to the hearing because "it's clear they've already made their mind up". She said: "I didn't want to leave my job, but I also had to make more money. I even had other jobs before going down the OnlyFans road – I worked in Tesco, I worked as an elf at a Braehead Christmas event. I was always a hard worker. "My images were illegally downloaded and shared with pupils in the school that I worked in – the career that I worked my whole life to get. So I had no choice but to leave." Headteacher Seonaidh Black described Buchan as a "bubbly and enthusiastic" teacher who showed poor judgment online. She confirmed that Buchan's social media accounts were publicly accessible and that informal discussions had previously been held to address boundary concerns. In November 2022, Buchan was signed off work with stress. Shortly after, senior pupils in S5 and S6 began circulating screenshots from her OnlyFans page. READ MORE: Spurned cop who stalked ex-partner caught driving while disqualified Staff were alerted when a deputy head shared screenshots reportedly viewed by students. One email, sent from a pupil's account and allegedly penned by a parent, contained images of Buchan topless and in lingerie. Ms Black said, 'It was obvious everyone knew what was going on." Around the same time, staff at the school were taking part in strikes over pupil behaviour. Ms Black said the timings of the revelations about Ms Buchan's OnlyFans page were "coincidental or perhaps deliberate". She said: "The OnlyFans thing happened two days before teachers were on a picket line at the school gate." Ms Black said the school had tried to make sure young people felt "valued for who they are, not thinking everything is about what's on show on social media". She said: "What doesn't help is when your teacher is on a website where the content they are presenting has a pornographic element to it. We're trying to say 'this is what life is all about' and the role model – the teacher – is countering what we're trying to teach." Ms Black added it would be "a long time before the situation involving Kirsty is no longer talked about". The hearing heard that Ms Buchan had given a number of interviews to the Daily Record newspaper, where she said she was able to make £50,000 per month through OnlyFans. In a video interview, played to the panel, she said it was "the definition of insanity" for her to be working long hours as a teacher when she could make more money to "sit on her behind". She said: "If people have a problem, then it's because they can't do it themselves." GTCS investigators confirmed that parts of her OnlyFans profile were accessible without a subscription, further blurring the lines of privacy. READ MORE: Woman jailed in UK's first monkey torture case Investigating officer Hannah Oakley said members of the public could access a limited section of Ms Buchan's OnlyFans profile without having to sign up or subscribe. She said she was able to do this as there had been several press articles about Ms Buchan's online activity, which included screenshots of her OnlyFans profile name. She said: "I knew exactly what I was looking for and where I was looking for [it]." The GTCS found that all allegations against Ms Buchan had been proven and decided that she should be struck off on Monday afternoon. Glasgow City Council conducted its own investigation and issued a firm response: "The council has a code of conduct that all employees should adhere to and a teacher who has actively pursued a second income on this type of website brings their school, the council and their profession into disrepute."
