The first rule of Bite Club is you talk to Dave Pearson, a shark attack survivor who connects hundreds of people from around the world to support each other "beyond the bite". The 58-year-old almost died a decade ago when a bull shark tore into his arm while he was surfing off Australia's east coast. Since the day when friends hauled him to shore away from the three-metre predator that dragged him around the bottom of the ocean before losing.
