Journalists spoke with Charlie Hayek, who shared his emotions from the adventures experienced. The man is 62 years old, explained in the article. In 2024, he decided to set a record from daily waves and therefore did not stop even after the 12th in the life of a shark bite. In addition, the American remained on the shore of Florida, survived the beat of the hurricane "Milton", and even rolled on the waves after the storm. The Charlie Instagram page shows a number of photos in the storm.
The surfing player has a school for children and adults on the New Smir-Beach beach, according to the portal. On September 22, the 148th day of setting the record was to take place. The man took the board, rose to the wave and "flew" forward. According to him, the water was foamy, so no man, no shark saw each other. At some point, he had to cut off the board and he felt his foot directly on the body of the animal. "I got off my board and landed directly on the shark.
As soon as I came to it, we both were scared," the brave man explained. The shark bites Charlie, but he was not too worried about it, journalists heard. In his opinion, it was a warning and no one planned to eat it. The surfing player reached the shore and saw a flow of blood from the foot and lower leg. He was provided with medical care - washed the wound, put 10 seams. In the photo, he smiles fun, although you can see traces of shark teeth.
Five days later, Florida had to hit the hurricane Milton, but Charlie did not plan to change his plans. The man remained on the beach, strengthened the door and windows and was preparing for the blow of the element. In the photo that appeared on the network, we see a tornado, a broken house, an inverted car, and the surfing player smiles and poses near the inclined boat. In other photos of Charlie, almost five -meter waves of the Atlantic, which arose after the Hurricane Milton.
Charlie explained to journalists that he did not think to change plans because of the worsening weather. However, the American acknowledged that he was scared when he saw a tornado and how "coconuts" began to fly from the trees. " "I was barely removing the seams, and I married a hurricane. I scored hatches around the house, grabbed my dogs and pulled my ass to southern Florida to catch the perfect waves. These huge funnels, water in the air that penetrated everywhere! Sharks behind.
It should be noted that the focus wrote about the danger of Hurricane Milton, which on October 10 hit the Florida coast in the United States. According to estimates, the wind speed reached 290 km/h, and the authorities called for evacuating 5. 5 million people. We remind you that NASA engineer has checked whether sharks really respond to a drop of blood that fell into the ocean.
