Watch the shocking moment man pulls a SHARK out the sea to pose for selfies with the distressed animal.

The animal writhes around on the sand, clearly terrified and unable to breathe

SHOCKING video has emerged of the moment a man pulled a shark out of the sea to pose for selfies with the distressed animal.

Dozens of people crowded round to get a look at the squirming calf, straining to touch it and take selfies with it and pulling on its snout

Shot in Florida, USA, the footage shows the unidentified man return from the water with the shark and posing with it on the beach as it struggles to breathe.

Tragically the dolphin's thick fatty skin meant it quickly overheated and died - with its tiny body later left discarded on the sand

The footage comes just days after a crowd of tourists in Argentina sparked global outrage when they ‘killed’ a baby dolphin by plucking it from the sea for selfies.
