Thayer Wade captured video Monday at Nauset Beach in Orleans, Mass., showing swimmers rushing to shore as the water fills with blood from the shark attacking the seal.

"I looked up and saw the dorsal fin and the tail of what was a great white shark," Wade told WBZ-TV. "You didn't know if it was a seal or a human so it was kind of a heart stopping moment." O'Brien and his 9-year-old daughter were in the water at the time of the attack. "We were all yelling 'Swim! Swim! Shark swim!' but they didn't react at first," O'Brien. He said he helped a teen surfer who was having trouble getting to shore after getting his foot caught in his surfboard cord. "He reached up and he yelled 'Help me! Help me!' and I grabbed his right arm and another guy grabbed his left arm and we pulled him out," O'Brien said.

"I'll probably think twice about jumping in the water."
