A British grandfather on holiday in Australia is being hailed as a hero after he grabbed a shark by its tail and tried to drag it away from people playing at the edge of the sea.
Paul Marshallsea, 62, from Merthyr Tydfil in South Wales, was on a beach north of Brisbane in Queensland when a siren was sounded to warn of a shark in the water.
Mr Marshallsea ran to the shoreline and grabbed the 2m (6ft) shark by the tail.

Proof that you can take the boy out of the valleys but you can't take the valleys out of the boy.
