The amazing images and footage were taken in Gansbaai, South Africa by Durban underwater cameraman Anthony Kobrowisky.

Other stunning shots show the 725kg shark latch on to the meal and attempt to wrestle if off the rope while another shark is filmed swimming just below the surface of the water.

It appears to have several teeth missing and a hook embedded in its mouth.
