1:12Now PlayingWARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT. A great white shark trying to make a meal out of two divers in an underwater cage bashed itself so hard against the bars that it broke its neck and drifted dead to the bottom of the ocean, video shows.
The recently resurfaced footage, posted on X over the weekend, shows the mammoth fish charging toward the cage in a frenzied attempt to get to the contraption’s pair of terrified human occupants
But as the shark thrusts its head in between the bars, it gets stuck and thrashes around reportedly for about 25 minutes while trying to free itself — fatally breaking its neck in the process.
Blood pours from the cage, and eventually the dead shark’s corpse dislodges from the bars and falls away from the divers, belly-up, as it sinks to the ocean floor.
The clip — which was first posted to YouTube in 2019 — had nearly 18 million new views by Monday afternoon.
