(Watch) Shark Week Expert Paul de Gelder Recounts His Scariest Shark Story

What a brave new world we live in.  We recently had the opportunity to speak to ex-Navy diver Paul de Gelder who had both a hand and leg ripped off in  a shark attack back in 2009.  But for some reason, this expert diver decided to go into a deep dive and went through his scary experience once again under the supervision of experts who encourage sharks to attack him and bite off his prosthetic limbs.

All of this plays out on “How to Survive a Shark Attack,” which recently premiered on  Discovery. In an exclusive interview with Right On!’s Cynthia Horner, de Gelder shares advice about standing your ground in the ocean against sharks and how to use psychology on these creatures.
