☆ A diver killed by a 15-foot great white shark classified as a 'provoked incident'

Simon Nellist, 35, a diving instructor, was killed by a great white shark off Sydney in 2022. A report has classified Nellist's death as a "provoked incident." The International Shark Attack File (ISAF), a global database of all known shark attacks, has now classified Nellist's death as a "provoked incident," which refers to a situation in which a human unintentionally or intentionally initiates contact with a shark. "A big great white, that's a great white, oh no, that's insane, the person's still there." Barcroft Media/Getty ImagesThe Australian Shark Incident Database, unlike ISAF, has recorded Nellist's death as an "unprovoked incident."
