Dan Watson was out on the beach with his family when he decided to fly his drone (DJI Mavic 2). Just after take-off, Dan spots what turned out to be a shark swimming directly towards his family.

Immediately, he yelled for them to come out whilst the drone captured stills of the entire course of events unfolding. Sharing the images on Instagram, he said “See that dark shadow making its way straight for the shore & those people? That was my view this weekend while flying my Mavic 2 Pro… and oh, 3 of those people are my kids! Swipe to see the next image that resulted from my yelling to get out of the water and the unmistakable outline of a shark. Definitely too close of an encounter for my liking! Thinking my @djiglobaldrone is now coming with me to every beach day!“
