While everyone headed out to the beach over the Memorial Day weekend, one teen probably regrets doing so as he became the victim of a shark attack. The 13-year-old boy was swimming at Neptune Beach, in waters that were about three feet deep when he was attacked and bitten on his right calf by a shark. Take a look at the aftermath of the bite thanks to a video tweeted by Nicole Snyder of WJXT:

The teen was rushed to the hospital with non-life threatening severe lacerations. The Neptune Beach Police say that based on the bite marks the shark had to be between five and six feet.
And because the teen is going to be alright, I think it’s OK to remind you of this great shark scene:
