WATCH: Drone captures close shark encounters on Miami Beach

A video footage captured by a drone on the Miami beach saw people swimming extremely close to a tiger shark, on Friday.

It is likely that the swimmers were unaware of the presence of the massive animal who was just a few feet away, as they seem unfazed and continued swimming.

The owner of the footage, filmed the video early morning and saw a shadow likething in the water, which he later thought to be a tiger shark after noticing the stripes on its body.
