Cool capture of the baracudda strike!

I had a similar thrill snorkeling in Roatan a few years ago, a baracudda blasted a blue tang just 3 ft from my face, the tang just exploded into pieces and the baracudda sat there just watching me. It happened so fast, I screamed through my snorkel and pushed myself away from the baracudda so fast I gashed my hand on some coral. It's incredible how fast they strike. I'm positive a person would have no defense against one if one came after you for some reason, you couldn't react in time to do anything.
