This is the moment a four-metre great white shark left a group of tourists hanging on for dear life when it bit down on their boat.
Stunning footage shows Czech woman Malvina Rezacova 38, coming within inches of the fearsome predator's jaws at Neptune Islands, off the coast of South Australia.
The daring tourist didn't seem too spooked by the man-eater, luring it around with a string of bait before it gnawed on the boat's back metal cage.

Other footage shows the predator gracefully gliding up to the ledge to pose for a selfie.
'I was very thrilled, but I wasn't scared at all by being so close to the shark. You just realise how much respect you must have for this huge majestic creature,' said Ms Rezacova.
'I captured a very curious great white shark in the videos who is sniffing around the boat and its surface cage.
'You just have to be really quick and prepared for shooting at the right moment.'
Male great white sharks live in the waters surrounding the Neptune Islands all year, while female only inhabit the waters from April to August when seal pups start entering the waters for the first time.
Ms Rezacova stressed that sharks are not dangerous, people must learn how to behave around them.
