Scary moment under water Shark bites diver in the calf

During a dive in the Maldives, travel photographer Lilian Tagliari is bitten by a nurse shark. The 38-year-old Brazilian escapes with a few scars and a fright.

On vacation in the Maldives, a swim among dozens of sharks is a must. At least if travel photographer Lilian Tagliari has her way. On her Instagram profile, she likes to pose underwater with various sea creatures.

While diving among nurse sharks, she ventured a little too close to the animals and one of them snapped at her.

The shark caught the Brazilian native's calf. However, she was lucky and suffered no more than a few scars. "My first kiss from a shark," she wrote about the video on Instagram.
