But it wasn’t either one. It was a great white shark the size of a small car.

Whoever’s filming is pretty cavalier about approaching the injured, thrashing animal, which has a deep gash on it from an encounter with a propeller. (Those injuries, according to Mashable and the Marine Conservation Science Institute, are probably not life-threatening).
