Amazing video shows Ex-Miami Dolphins player – Robert Konrad the moments he arrives back on shore after police say he swam 16-hours after falling off of his boat and into the Atlantic Ocean.

Rob Konrad,38, recounted the harrowing details of his life-threatening ordeal describing the frustration of seeing Coast Guard helicopters that were not able to see him. The former Fullback also fought 10-foot waves, 25-mile-per-hour winds, being bitten by jellyfish and seeing a shark circle him as he kept swimming. “I shouldn’t be here,” Konrad told reporters.

Konrad played for the Miami Dolphins from 1999 to 2004. Konrad had told responders, police and rescue workers, that he’d fallen off his boat around 1 p.m. as it continued on autopilot toward the Bahamas.
