An Iowa scuba diver lost her leg after surviving a shark attack in the Bahamas.
Heidi Ernst told The Gazette that she was climbing into her boat following a June 7 dive by Grand Bahama Island when a shark grabbed ahold of her left leg and shook its head.
“There was blood everywhere,” she told the Iowa newspaper. “I was dying. I was going to bleed to death. I was afraid I was going to die and was in severe pain.” Ms. Ernst’s foot and most of her shin were removed, except for a small portion below her knee to help with her prosthetic.
