PAWLEYS ISLAND, S.C. (WMBF) – A 7-year-old made a cool discovery while hanging out at the beach on Sunday.

Ian Smitherman, 7, from Murrells Inlet found a massive megalodon tooth while on the beach in Pawleys Island.

Ian’s mom said he forgot his flip-flops on the beach and when he ran back to get them, he stepped on the megalodon tooth in the sand.
