A tourist named Nash Core was with his wife, two sons named Parker and Lennox who came to Queensland state in Australia to visit family. While walking on the beach they encountered a washed up great white shark who needed help. With the help of three locals the rescue took almost an hour to get the shark back to deeper water. They had used crab rakes to safely move the shark without putting them in too much danger. Never would they have known they would have to rescue such a big great white shark. The great white was recorded to be 10 feet long and unsure about how he washed up on the shallow waters. They had thought the shark could either be sick or just tired.
