With great agility the imperilled toiler avoids the rush of the beast, and at the opportune moment plunges his knife from underneath deep into the belly of the shark. A mighty stream of blood stains the water ; the powerful creature lashes the sea with his great fins, and, struggling in the throes of death, seeks safety in flight. But sometimes, as is shown in our picture, a second shark appears at this juncture, and the diver must battle for his life once more. Sometimes he is fortunate enough to come out a victor from the second conflict, but often enough he is terribly mangled by the hungry hunter of the sea.
