My father was named from four deaths to death by sharks off the Israeli coast, and his destroyed family revealed that he used a GoPro attached to him gently predators away.
Barak Tzach, 40, from Petach Tikva, stopped on Olga Beach in Hadira on his way home from working to dip at sea – but he was subjected to brutal attack while swimming alone.

His family said in a statement: “He went to the water to dive and photograph sharks, and not to feed them or play with them.”
The police launched a huge search operation on Monday afternoon, and the Air and Navy deployed after receiving an emergency call at 3.02 pm.
By Tuesday evening, partial remains of the sea were recovered.
Forensic medicine tests at the Abu Kabir Institute later confirmed that the remains belonged to Tzache, who only entered the armed water with “mask, grille, finns and GOPRO – without any fish or taste.”
His last moments were arrested on horrific shots showing crushing in the water before turning red.
An eyewitness told local channel news 12: “I warned him against going to the sea, then I received the bitter news.”
The witness said that Barak shouted: “I am biting, I am organic,” he waved his hands in the air before he disappeared under the surface.
A relative told Israel National newspaper: “In a conversation with a fisherman who witnessed the accident, I was told that he swam next to the shark and then shortly after that.
“He photographed sharks from a distance, but he did not touch or feed them.
“When they started approaching him, use a GoPro camera to gently push them away.”
The Barak family now appealed to the public to stop publishing false allegations about his death and honoring his memory as a nature.
Their statement added: “The family asks that the public refrain from publishing false or baseless information, and honoring the memory of one of his family, who loved the sea and nature.”
Police and emergency services pledged to continue to search for more residue.
The officers said: “We express our sincere condolences to the family, which was informed of the results. We will accompany them during the complex process.”
“After a day and a half of the intense effort, we found what appeared to be part of the missing person,” added the deputy head of the fire, Doroun Al -Micheli, added.
“Of course, these results should undergo comprehensive checks …
“We have conducted our search style based on an accurate analysis of underwater currents, and was specifically in this field in which the remains were discovered.”
While shark attacks in the Mediterranean Sea are very rare-with 11 fatal attacks since 1900-the water off Hadira recently became a hot point for those looking for excitement who want to approach marine predators.
Online videos appear beach pioneers, including children, who stand in shallow waters with sharks that revolve around their legs.

According to the Israeli shark, some visitors were seen holding sharks from a tail or beating them in the brown.
The association described such reckless meetings “unreasonable behavior.”
Although local authorities urge people to stay away from water, the beach still serves as a magnet for shark lovers.
“We urge the public to travel in the region to avoid water and communication with sharks.”
