The victim of a fatal great white shark attack has been named as a British diving instructor who 'loved' the ocean.
Simon Nellist, 35, had been training for an ocean swim this upcoming weekend when he was tragically attacked.
Beachgoers at the Australian strip watched helplessly as the creature mauled the victim to death, The Mirror reports.
The attack at Buchan Point, Sydney, on February 16 left one onlooker 'vomiting' in fear.
The victim sadly died instantly from the "catastrophic injuries", police and ambulance services confirmed.
It is the first fatal shark attack in the Australian city in six decades.
“Everything that is connected to Simon is connected to the ocean,” friend Della Ross told 7NEWS.
“The news hit us like a truck because he was one of the people who make this earth lighter.”
Mr Nellist, who is reported to have a fiancee and family back home in the UK was soon to be married according to the Australian media outlet.
He had been practicing for an ocean swimming event planned for this weekend.
The event has now been cancelled out of respect to the victim.
Eye witnesses who watched on in horror claimed they had seen the shark "swallow parts of his body" and yelled across the beach "someone has just been eaten".
In a shocking video taken as the attack happened, people can be heard reacting as the tragedy unfolded before them.
One fisherman is heard shouting: "Someone just got eaten by a shark. Oh man! Oh no! That's insane. That's a great white shark.
"I just saw a four to five metre great white explode on the surface right here on a swimmer and it was like a car landing in the water.
"F*** man, I heard a scream and the shark was just chomping on his body and the body was in half here just off the rocks.
"It came back

John C. Reilly says his career was “dead in the water” before new LA Lakers series
HBO‘s new LA Lakers drama.The actor is set to portray former Lakers owner Jerry Buss in the forthcoming basketball drama Winning Time: The Rise Of The Lakers Dynasty, which is due out next month.Reilly was the third choice for the role in the Adam McKay drama after Will Ferrell and Michael Shannon dropped out.“I’d been sitting at my kitchen table, thinking, ‘Man, I’m dead in the water, all this work, 80 movies, and I got nothing going on,’ when I got the text from Adam,” Reilly told The Hollywood Reporter.He landed the part after Ferrell fell out with his longstanding collaborator McKay over the role.“It ended not well,” McKay said in a recent interview with Vanity Fair after Ferrell, a die hard fan of the team, had his heart set on playing Buss.McKay thought that Ferrell’s Step Brothers co-star Reilly would be better suited for the role.“Ferrell just doesn’t look like Jerry Buss, and he’s not that vibe of a Jerry Buss,” added McKay. “And there were some people involved who were like, ‘We love Ferrell, he’s a genius, but we can’t see him doing it.’ It was a bit of a hard discussion.” To make things worse, McKay didn’t personally notify Ferrell of the choice.
