I'm assuming you've heard about the recent string of shark attacks along the coast of North Carolina. Even with that being the case, that isn't keeping tourists away from the beaches. Some of the beach goers, however, have decided to take matters into their own hands.

Case in point: here's video of an older couple nonchalantly walking into the ocean in North Carolina with their very own set of homemade shark cages. They didn't make it very far though. Shortly after entering the water, they were chased down by a lifeguard. It should be pointed out though - they did come out of the water without a shark bite.
