Onlookers Astonished as White Shark Surfaces to Feast on Seal Off Cape Cod

A lucky group on a whale watching trip off Provincetown, Massachusetts, were the firsthand witnesses of nature at its most dramatic on May 20, when a white shark emerged from the water to devour a seal. Footage by Todd Michael Ferrer-Bedard shows the predator's jaws closing on the seal, after it suddenly emerged from the water. The shark then resurfaces to pick off the rest of its prey. Ferrer-Bedard, who said this was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, told Storyful that he got "goosebumps and the chills" as soon as the shark surfaced. "The amount of power that shark has is astonishing," he said. (Footage by Todd Ferrer-Bedard/Storyful via Getty Images UGC)
