About this episode
Dave Pearson shares his harrowing experience of surviving a shark attack and his journey to help others through a support group.
Dave Pearson was out for a surf like any other day when, out of nowhere, a shark came out of the water and bit his left arm. Doctors were able to not only save his life, but they also saved his arm from amputation. Dave went on to create a support group for bite survivors called Bite Club.
