Brave or lucky? See the moment a dog took on a hammerhead shark

(CNN) Passengers on a boat tour in The Bahamas caught the moment a daredevil dog jumped directly onto a 12-foot hammerhead shark.

The incident happened off the coast of Exuma. Passengers who were on a board tour gasped and screamed as the god leapt into the water, appearing to fight the shark.

The dog then managed to get away, victoriously climbing ashore as if this wasn’t its first rodeo.

Exuma Water Sports says the pup lives on the private island. It’s unclear if the dog was defending its home or looking to play with the shark.

The owners of Exuma Water Sports say the dog escaped the incident unscathed.
