A diver has shared the hilarious moment a great white shark had a massive poo in his direction while he was filming the beast with his underwater camera.
In the three-second clip, which was broadcast in the Discovery Channel's “Mega Predators of Oz” documentary for Shark Week, the diver is left with a face full of faeces straight from a great white shark.
The shark is seen swimming near the divers, letting out a great big poo, which is just what Dr Charlie Huveneers and his team of biologists were hoping for as were there to try to get a sample of the giant shark’s faeces.

Scientists wanted to help track how a great white could have been responsible for a half-eaten mako shark found in South Australia.
The video was later shared on the channel's Shark Week Instagram, gaining more than 6,700 likes, with the caption: "And this … is a white shark's faecal tornado. Science!"
Viewers took to the comments in hysterics over the footage as some were shocked over the size of the beast's poo.
One user said: "Just when you think you've seen it all…Sharknado sh*tstorm happens."
Another commented: "If a white shark ever eats you that's what you will come out as."
A third quipped: "Shartnado."

A fourth added: "Given that it appears to be a male shark, the photographer is probably happy it was only poo."
"Oh, I thought for a second he kicked in the turbo boosters," a fifth wrote.
Great whites are carnivorous and can grow up to around 20 feet, weighing as much as 5,000 pounds. Their diet mainly consists of seals, sea lions, dolphins and fish, among other animals.
