Pictured: Brutus the great white shark bares its teeth for the camera

Not everyone is lucky enough to be born with a Hollywood smile. But Brutus, a great white shark spotted off the Mexican coast, has no problem baring its teeth for the camera.

The 1,500-pound shark was caught on camera by London-based photographer Euan Rannachan, near Guadalupe Island in Mexico.

Mr Rannachan said: "I realised that I could guess when he would open his mouth and get myself into position to take the photo".

“I’m glad I did, because only seconds later, he attacked the bait right in front of me multiple times – and I had a front row seat," he added.
