Sure, but did he wear a seatbelt?

From the Scotsman:
A SNORKELER attacked by a shark off Australiaís east coast swam to shore with the predator still gripping his leg and then drove to a lifesaversí club to have it removed. Luke Tresoglavic, 22, was snorkelling on a reef about 330 yards off Caves Beach, 75 miles north of Sydney, Australia, when a wobbegong shark bit him just below the kneecap and held on. "I just realised I had to swim in like that, hanging on to it," Mr Tresoglavic said yesterday. "Once I got to shore, a couple of people tried to help me, but I could not remove it. It was stuck there, so I got up into my car and drove to the clubhouse, and luckily the guys down there had a clue what to do."
Those Australians are a tough lot.

I caught it on the news. It wasn't a white-pointer or anything - probably about 30-40cm long - but hanging on for dear life.
