An Australian fisherman after reeling in an 8-foot bronze whaler shark from the beach, the predator got his vengeance by slapping the man in the face. UPI reported.

Jack Jacobs, said after he reeled in the "bronzie" at Rogers Beach in South Australia, the fish "put up an awesome fight."

The shark's fight didn't end when it was landed -- it used its tail to slap Jacobs in the face, knocking his head-mounted camera to the ground, while he was making sure it didn't still have a hook lodged in its mouth or body.

Jacobs said he measured the shark at more than 8 feet and released it back into the ocean after tagging it.
