A great white shark bumped into a boat with a loud thud off the coast of South Africa.

In the video, a person can be seen tossing a tuna head in the water as bait to draw the shark closer to the boat.

The boat’s crew works for White Shark Africa, a cage diving and shark research company.

After several tosses, the shark ends up chasing the bait and rams into the boat with a loud thud.

“This shark was very playful and active and got a little too eager chasing the tuna head,” the filmer said.

“The shark was unharmed — though probably a bit shocked — as sharks have sensory organs called ampullae of Lorenzini that cover their snouts,” the filmer explained.
