As other surfers fled the water thinking the lurking two-metre-long creature was a shark, Philippe de Lépervanche quickly identified it as a tuna. "I used the waves to get into the shore," Lépervanche told The Local. Lépervanche and his friends then sliced up the catch and, after distributing tuna steaks to all present, froze what remained.
