OMG: Florida Teen Bitten By Shark Off Coast Of Palm Beach

A Florida teenager is recovering after being bitten by a shark off the coast of Palm Beach. 

Seventeen-year-old Jason Hartl says he and a friend were surfing south of the Juno Beach Pier Monday when what he thinks was a black tip shark grabbed his foot and pulled him off his board.  

Hartl said he yelled for help to a friend who was also surfing, but he was too far away to hear him. So, Hartl paddled himself to shore.

He said a lifeguard bandaged his foot and he was taken to Jupiter Medical Center.

Even with 22 stitches, the teen says he is not going to let the attack scare him away from the water
