Viewers were shocked when he was bitten on the finger by a nurse shark in an episode of the survival show aired on Sunday (October 7).
The baby shark, said to be around one metre long, attacked when Wicks tried to cut it out of the fishing net it had been caught in.
It latched on to his finger and refused to let go but was eventually killed and eaten for dinner.
