After addressing the elephant in the room about his joke, they were able to kick on with the interview!

Hughesy asked about the moment and what he remembers about the lead up to it.

“It was one of those moments where, you can’t see these things coming,” Connellan said.

“It’s not like the Jaws picture everyone has of this fin coming towards you.

“It’s something that just happened in an instant.”

Brett lost part of his leg to a shark attack.

Brett’s story is fascinating and harrowing, but his ability to share is a true gift.
