"My friends and I came out of the water after a morning surf, then we noticed a baby shark struggling by the rocks," the videographer wrote.

"After a few failed attempts to get the shark back out to sea from the rocks, we decided to take the shark to a better location," he said, adding that the shark was able to swim away once they carried it away from the rocks.
