Visiting Australia's Sunshine Coast over the weekend, she took that dream and turned it into a scary reality, care of Calypso Star Charters.
What she didn't expect was to capture the moment a shark, in full attack mode, leapt out of the ocean for a meal.

For a great white shark to be able to propel itself skyward, it must reportedly reach speeds of up to 40 kilometres (24.8 miles) per hour and often launches up to 3 metres (3.2 yards) before crashing back down.
Just look at that spectacular display of the sheer great white shark power.
