Punching Above Her Weight The Sydney shark attack has left many in awe of Leah Stewart's bravery. But what does her story really tell us about human resilience?
On a sunny day at Coogee Beach last June, 35 year old Stewart found herself face to face with a four metre long great white shark.
Stewart was swimming alone when the attack occurred, leaving her with extensive injuries and requiring the amputation of her left lower arm.
