A majestic great white shark has been delightfully terrorizing beachgoers near the shore of Palolem Beach, South Goa, India – but they needn’t fear because this Jaws look-alike is made of stone. The protruding life-sized rock was transformed by American artist Jimmy Swift, who was noticed the perfectly shaped ‘head’ and was inspired by the horror film.
“When I first saw this rock it looked like a perfect place for a great white,” revealed Swift, who painted the shark in March 2015. “It’s truly amazing how mother nature can carve out such a perfect shape.” The artist’s spray-paint creation has become a landmark for travelers in the region and it’s easy to see why.
