A champion South African bodyboarder was killed by a 13-foot-long great white shark off the coast of South Africa.

According to the Cape Times, the attack occurred Thursday afternoon off of Gordons Bay, a popular surfing destination located about 55 miles east of Cape Town.

David Lilienfeld, 20, was killed after the shark severed his right leg below the hip. Lilienfeld's younger brother, Gustav, had attempted to fend off the shark with his board.

Wow.
