This had to be a scary experience. Self-described film director, pirate, cinematographer, and conservationist zimydakid was scuba diving when a tiger shark decided to take a bite of his Insta360 camera. The shark chewed on it for a minute, then decided it didn't taste all that good, and so discarded it. Surprisingly, the camera still worked fine, with only a couple of scratches as souvenirs of its time in a shark's mouth. Oh yeah, and there's the footage, too. How scared was zimydakid? Judge for yourself from some other footage of him recording tiger sharks.
In other words, not at all. The camera-eating clip was taken near the Maldives, although zimydakid and his crew have been all over the world swimming with sharks, which you can see at Instagram. -via Boing Boing
