Netizens react to the video
Reportedly, the viral video of the shark at Navarre Beach was originally shot by Cristy Cox. And while talking to Pensacola News Journal, she said that it all happened so fast that the people around could not even register what was happening.
“A dolphin was actually side by side with the shark at first and then just disappeared. The shark was surely trying to feed on as they are expected. Later, it just passed by swimmers and everyone was too stunned to speak. I think it moved down the beach chasing the school of fish. However, we should remember that this is natural and we are in their home. Obviously staying alert is important,” Cristy Cox told Pensacola News Journal.
Many social media users remarked in the comment section that how often sharks can be found around Navarre Pier. Some users also urged beachgoers to run as soon as they find anything unusual. However, no harm has been reported, but people visiting Navarre Beach will have to be cautious in the future.
