A man was snorkeling for lobster. He saw a 2-to-3-foot nurse shark and believing that this type of shark was passive, he netted it to show his girlfriend in his boat. Holding the shark by its tail at arms length his friend took pictures. Suddenly, the shark twisted and bit him in his arm. He couldn’t get the shark to release by hitting it, and he had to go to an emergency room where a doctor injected the shark with a muscle paralyzer.
