Great Whites are pure carnivores. They are ambush hunters. They take their prey by surprise from below. They usually hunt early in the morning before the sun rises fully, when the visibility is poor. They usually come up fast from below and attack an unsuspecting prey that is at the water surface. During such attacks, the prey may be thrown off from water, with even the shark making a jump out of the water. Sometimes, when an injured prey starts to escape, they are known to chase and finish the hunt.
