The incident took place at a beach in Navarre, Florida, and definitely left the people nothing but terrified. As soon as the shark's fin was spotted, everyone in the water tried getting out of it and rushed towards the shore.

The shocking video was documented by Cristy Cox, as per reports. Talking about the incident to Pensacola News Journal, she said, “It all happened so fast! A dolphin was actually side by side with the shark at first and then just disappeared."

“The shark was just trying to feed, as they are expected, and just passed by swimmers. Everyone was stunned as it moved down the beach chasing the school of fish. We all just have to remember this is natural and we are in their home, so stay alert!,” she added.

The video soon went viral on social media platforms and many shared their views in the comments.

“The beach ain’t a park. It’s the living solace for sea life…. It ain’t your hood,” a user wrote.
