A brave Sydney swimmer has shared his close-up encounter with three great white sharks in incredible slow-motion footage.
Beach-goers were warned to stay vigilant of sharks after a whale carcass was spotted in waters off Wattamolla beach near Cronulla - but oceanographer Kurt Kiggins and his brother Jai were not daunted by the prospect.
Mr Kiggins, 26, said as soon as he heard on Saturday morning that there were sharks feeding on the carcass, he and his brother rushed to the beach.

Mr Kiggins told Daily Mail Australia on Sunday he ventured into the dangerous waters despite people at the beach telling him to stay on the shore.
He said: 'People and friends on the beach were saying please don't go in - but it's a once in a lifetime opportunity.

'There were three great whites right there as soon as we got into the water.'
But Shaun Elwood of the National Parks and Wildlife Service warned against such behaviour in an interview with Channel 9.
He said: 'Look it's stupid. New South Wales Police and NSW Maritime really discourage doing anything like that.'

Swimming with blood-hungry sharks is the least of Kurt's fears though - he is more worried about getting close and personal though with the razor-sharp bills of the blue marlin.
Earlier this month, he shared a photo of him with the sword-shaped fish swimming next to his boat in the Azores.
On Friday, a 12-year-old girl was mauled by a shark in Cid Harbour off Queensland's northeast coast.
Tasmanian woman Justine Barwick was also attacked by a shark in the same harbour two days earlier and underwent 18 hours of intensive surgery.
The second attack came just 24 hours after a Tasmanian woman Justine Barwick (pictured) had been attacked by a shark nearby

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
