A Hero Wrestled a Shark to Save a Neonate Severed Arm

On July 6, 2001, Jesse, an 80-year-old boy from Ocean Springs, Missouri, was on a vacation with his family. At dusk time, when Jesse was swimming in the shallow water in Florida, he was attacked by a bull shark measuring about seven foot. As the shark bit off Jesse's right arm and part of his right thigh, His uncle Vance plunged into the water, carried the boy to shore and dive back into seas,. He wrestled the shark and dragged it to the shore where it was shot three times. After one year after the incident, the uncle spoke to Good Morning America and he decided to publicly speak for the first time about rescuing the young man.
