Shark Attack Survivors’ Club Returns to Ocean: ‘We’re Here for Each Other’

Five strangers share a frightening bond: They all survived shark attacks. They are now members of an online support group called Bite Club, and they're sharing their harrowing experiences with each other in person for the first time. "I don't think this is something that ever leaves you," said Steve Robles. He was attacked in the waters off Manhattan Beach, California, in 2014. Leeanne Ericson was left with a chunk missing from her leg after a great white shark bit her in San Diego in 2017.
