An American woman has described seeing her leg "shredded" after she was attacked by a shark in Puerto Rico last week.
Lydia Strunk, 27, was kayaking with a group of 16 tourists at a tiny island just east of Puerto Rico, famed for its bioluminescent waters.
She jumped into the water with four other people, when something hit the leg of the person next to her.
"The person next to me asked, 'Did you feel that?'" Strunk told Good Morning America. "Then, moments later, I felt a strong impact against my right leg and it pulled me into the water. Then I felt the shark swim across my left leg and then swim away."
"It was certainly a moment that changed from enjoyable to terrifying very quickly," said Strunk, who was then bitten by a six-foot long Tiger shark.
