Mike Spalding is a marathon swimmer, and one of only two people to have swum all nine channels of the main Hawaiian Islands. He lives on Maui. On March 16, 2009 Spalding became one of the few humans to be attacked by the deep water cookiecutter shark. He was bitten by one of the sharks while swimming between the islands of Hawai'i and Maui in what is referred to as the Alenuihaha Channel. The attack occurred at 8:15 pm 10 miles off Upolu point. The cookiecutter shark was attracted to squid that were in turn drawn to the light on the escort boat. Just before the attack the swimmer felt squid bumping into him while swimming. The cookiecutter shark first attached itself to the upper torso but did not bite as it was scared away by the swimming motion. On exiting the water into the escort kayak the second bite took a round cookiecutter chunk of flesh out of the lower left calf. Spalding completed the crossing a year and a half later without incident except for the appearance of an oceanic whitetip shark in the same vicinity of the cookiecutter shark incident.
