On March 25th, 1996, Jesse went surfing before school. The day was perfect: no one out and pumping waves. He fell on one and hit his head on a sandbar. "It felt like a tuning-fork hit me," he says. "I was just hoping to turn over." Jesse was paralyzed. The sixth vertebrae in his neck was broken, and his spinal cord was severed. The doctors told him he would never walk again.

Even though it's just a baby great white, and it's not very big, and he was in no real danger, it's still pretty dang cool to be this close to one of Nature's greatest predators.
