Argentine surfer Alejandro Travaglini came face to face with a four-metre white shark. He suffered 100 stitches and a wound of 30 centimeters.

The incident happened five years ago in Margaret River, Australia. He says that the trauma subsided after a saving wave that landed him on the shore. 'What happened to me was unforgettable, but it didn't change my life,' he says. 'I wasn't going to shrink, despite having had the scare of my life'
