It happened three years ago during my stay in Brazil. I went there with my parents for my summer holidays. And to tell you the truth, I know that I will never forget them because I experienced a horrible adventure there.
On the 5th of July I was enjoying myself at Ipanema Beach (one of the most attractive beaches in the world) when I saw a killer shark in the ocean. It was over two metres long and looked as if it weighed at least 70 kilograms. No wonder that I panicked and began crying like many other people who gathered on the beach.
Only one man did not panic-it was Tom Jackson, a 26-year old footballer from Miami (the USA). As soon as he saw the shark in the water he didn’t hesitate. He made up his mind to kill the thing. I was astonished when I noticed that after he had run into the water he fought the shark with his bare hands.
While he was fighting the monster, I called the emergency services on my cell phone. When Tom hit the shark on the head it lost its consciousness. Finally he killed it witch a heavy axe. All the people clapped and cheered as they felt safe again.
Now I like talking about this adventure but three years ago I was so scared that I hated my Brazilian holidays.
