Tributes for British diving instructor killed by shark in Sydney | ITV News

A friend of the British driving instructor who was mauled to death by a great white shark in Australia has said he will be "horrifically missed" as he was "one of the people who makes this earth better".

Local media named 35-year-old Simon Nellist as the victim of the attack, just off Little Bay in east Sydney on Wednesday afternoon.

Mr Nellist, who had been swimming just offshore when the great white attacked, was said to have been training for a charity ocean swim this weekend when he was attacked from below.
