A man owes his life to his wife, who is pregnant, after a 9-foot bull shark latched onto his shoulder while he was snorkeling in the Florida Keys. Without hesitation, she dove into the water and rescued him.

The Monroe County Sheriff’s Office reported that 30-year-old Andrew Eddy took his wife, Margot Dukes-Eddy, out to Sombrero Reef on Sept. 20, along with her parents, sister, and sister’s boyfriend. Eddy had just gotten into the water when a huge shark took hold of his shoulder with its jaws.
