Watch: Sea turtle flips the odds in a fight with a tiger shark

A photographer captured this battle off the Australia's Ningaloo Coast in which a tiger shark went after a sea turtle. Impressively, the sea turtle flipped itself over in the water so its shell was down, making it difficult for the shark to get a lasting grip.

According to the photographer, the sea turtle made it to shore, barely escaping certain death. For the moment, anyway.
