The video shows the shark leaping out of the water with an open mouth.

The shark swallows the pie, thrown in by a passenger, and scares off two seagulls in the process.

‘A fellow diver said to me, imagine if a shark came up to eat the pie,’ Rose Gullery told Seven News. 

‘I started rolling my camera and what felt like two seconds later the shark came up, took the pie in its mouth and dived back down.’

The Shark Cage Dive NZ tour group had taken a break from diving to eat meat pies for lunch.

Some threw their leftovers overboard.

‘The crew said it is rare for great whites to breach so seeing one come up for a pie was very cute I thought,’ Ms Gullery said.
