Lucy Manning recorded an up close video with a grey seal before the mammal took a bite of her leg
A "scared" scuba diver captured her incredible close encounter with a hungry seal - which sank its teeth into her leg as they met underwater. Lucy Manning recorded an up-close video with a grey seal and filmed the moment the curious mammal took a cheeky nibble off her flipper before moving on to her thigh.
However, on her second trip underwater, Lucy felt a tapping sensation on her diving fin before turning to see a seal by her leg. Her footage shows the playful marine mammal open its jaws to take a bite out of her leg before swimming off into the distance. "The visibility isn't the best around here. We had two dives. The first dive, it was kind of eerie and there wasn't too much to see and we were a little bit disheartened.
"There were loads of them floating about and they love to copy you. They were really interactive and fun.
