Some sporting arenas not only require the physical prowess but also mental moxie. And, Surfing is one such sport. Although the big blue oceanic ripples might please with its adrenaline rush, one also might end up drowning in its infinity. Likewise, the California surfer, Jared Trainor, once had a near-fatal encounter with death.

Earlier this year, 31-year-old surfer Jared Trainor got severely injured while surfing. Apparently, he got attacked by a shark and suffered from some life-threatening injuries.

The 31-year-old surfer profoundly chatted about his life-threatening accident with The Times-Standard. He detailed every in and out of his surfing mishap. As per the report, Trainor was surfing at Centerville Beach, California, during the peak season of Shark migration to the west coast.

Although the surfer was aware of the dangers of surfing during ‘Sharktober’, he confidently paddled into the ocean and fell prey to shark clutches. Defining the shark’s grip, Jared said, “Its lower jaws had the board and its upper jaws had my leg”. However, the surfer did get rescued after the surfing catastrophe.
