Tragic reports are arriving from one of the world's most breathtaking beaches and a luxury diving destination in the USA.
The scene is usually the setting for fun and leisure, but it would always torment one man whose friend was devoured by a shark alive before his very own eyes. 33-year-old Robert Pamperin plunged into the famous waters of La Jolla Cove in San Diego on a cloudy afternoon alongside his pal, who is Gerald Lehrer. Sadly, he was never seen again.
Sources from local media outlets shared more about how there were two free divers who were on the hunt for abalone. This is a type of sea snail. On one evening, the unthinkable unfolded.
As they descended off the west end of La Jolla Cove, the duo slowly drifted apart, and it was not until they were 30 feet apart from one another that Lehrer heard the chilling cry of help me from a distance.
Lehrer spun around in seconds to see his friend roll out of the water. His dive mask was gone from his face, and all he saw was his body being thrashed violently with his lower half locked in the jaws of a great white shark.
