A teenager who was dragged off his surfboard by a shark at a popular surfing spot in Perth says he thought he was going to die.
Sav Marafioti, 17, was surfing about 25m offshore at Toms Surf Break in North Beach when a 1.5m bronze whaler clutched his leg rope on Sunday morning.
“I felt a nudge and everyone had somehow felt seaweed around them,” he told 9 News on Monday.
“As I put my leg down, I felt it again, so I’ve put my leg up and it’s grabbed my leg rope and started pulling down, and my leg rope’s just started to stretch.
“I thought I was going to die. I didn’t know what to do.
