A second woman has died at a tourist hotspot in Egypt from a shark attack after horrific footage emerged of another Austrian pensioner being killed 650ft away.
Egyptian authorities admitted another lifeless body was pulled out of the sea after being located on a reef in Sahl Hasheesh, south of Hurghada, according to eyewitnesses.
The woman's identity have not been revealed but she is believed to have been a Romanian tourist who was staying at adult-only Premiere Le Reve five star hotel.
The first woman from Kramsach, Tyrol had been in the country for a month with her partner, an Egyptian, and was due to return home today.
She was walking in shallow water while using a snorkel with fins not far from the beach near Hurghada and told her partner: 'I'll go back in for a moment'.
Footage then shows her clamouring toward safety with the aid of a flipper as the waters around her turned scarlet red in Sahl Hasheesh bay, south of Hurghada, in the Red Sea.
Terrified onlookers tried to distract the animal, which is believed to be either a Mako or a Oceanic whitetip shark, but no one jumped in to help her.
An Egyptian health official said she was then taken to the private Nile Hospital where she could not be resuscitated and is believed to have died from 'painful shock' - most likely a heart attack.
Yesterday, officials at the Red Sea Governorate told reporters that area of the attack and Hurghada would be closed to all sea activity including fishing and diving. The beach has been deserted in the wake of the deaths but will most likely reopen tomorrow.
