A photographer in Hawaii has captured footage showing what appears to be a blacktip reef shark swimming just feet from shore toward a lone North Shore snorkeler.

The footage, captured by Bryan Phillips and shared by Clark Little, features suspenseful "Jaws" music and a warning shout to the snorkeler: “Hey, there’s a shark right there! Look down!”
