CATALINA ISLAND, Calif. - A California man came face to face with a great white shark and lived to tell the tale.
The incident happened off the coast of Catalina Island earlier this week.
Danny McDaniel says he was with a friend kayaking after a morning scuba diving session when he felt something push the boat.
He turned around to find a great white shark taking a massive bite out of his kayak. McDaniel says everything happened so fast, and the shark was below the surface in seconds.

But the shark did leave McDaniel with a little souvenir… two big teeth.
Oceanographers say based on the size of the teeth, they estimate the shark to be 17 to 20 feet long.
