This lucky seal avoided a grisly death in the jaws of a great white shark — by a nose.
The marine mammal was swimming with a pod of pals off the coast of South Africa when the killer fish tried turning it into lunch.
But the massive predator missed its mark as it breached the surface, nailing the seal with its snout — instead of row after row of razor-sharp teeth.
The terrified seal then narrowly escaped by using a flipper to avoid falling into the shark’s mouth.
Irish tourist David Baz Jenkins, 41, shot the stunning photo while on a shark-watching cruise off the coast of Cape Town.
