Brother of the surfer killed by a shark spoke about the last gift from his twin.

According to The Sun: The brother of the deceased surfer shared his feelings after the funeral, talking about a touching moment he considers the last gift from his brother.

Mike Psilakis returned to Dee Why Beach in Sydney with friends, finding himself in the same spot where his brother Mercury was killed by a shark.

Mercury, 57, died from a shark attack on September 7 while surfing about 100 meters from Long Reef Beach and died almost instantly.

Memories and Tribute

For Mike, returning to surfing was a moment filled with sadness and strength in memory of his brother. He shared his impressions on his social media pages after a picnic on Thursday: “It was good to spend time with friends and a few special people on the peninsula.”

“My first wave was undoubtedly a gift from brother Mercury. It was an incredible wave under conditions not favorable for surfing,” he wrote.

Mike shared that the week had been difficult as he buried his twin.

“Yesterday was hard. I was burying my brother on his last eternal wave, but despite the pain, at Dee Why Beach, I felt he was playing with dolphins,” Mike added.

The bond between the brothers proved strong even after Mercury's death.

Last Moments of Mercury

Mike also shared old text messages, including about the surfing conditions at Curl Curl Beach. “Just another telepathic message that my brother and I shared,” he noted.

“When Mercury died, part of me died with him. But more importantly, part of him lives through me, helping me carry his flame as long as I am alive,” Mike noted.

Details of Mercury's last moments indicate that he tried to save others before the fatal blow. Friends claim that he noticed a 16-foot predator and began warning other surfers.

Witnesses described the horror as Mercury disappeared underwater, being pulled down with his board.

“This is the worst-case scenario,” former professional surfer Toby Martin said, adding that the shark attacked from behind.

Mike continues to remember his brother and honor his legacy at every step.

This tragic event serves as a reminder of the dangers of surfing, especially in areas where sharks may be present. Mercury will be remembered as a brave surfer who tried to protect others, even in the last moments of his life. His brother, Mike, continues to uphold his memory, following their shared spirit and passion for surfing.
