Ever feel like punching someone in the nose? It paid off for a surfer in Oregon this Christmas Season, when he tangled with a Great White Shark in a favorite surfing spot today.

It appears that watching the Discovery Channel saved his life. He remembered the fact that sharks have very sensitive noses and punched the Great White in the nose until he let him go.

I guess the moral to this story is, if you have someone you can't get off your back, you might want to try punching them in the nose. Who knows what good it might do them!
