A guy I know was water skiing in Tampa bay as a teenager when he looked behind him. He was being followed by two tiger sharks . He got to shore and never skied there again
I don't know why people always say it's "massive" , they're that size, nobody says; "I saw a massive hippopotamus" even though they're massive if you compare them with a dog. The same with sharks; they're large animals so there's nothing unusual about this one.
....AND, if I heard it right his rig was 400 yards from the end of the pier!!....I've never thrown a line 400 yds, have you!?...I'm thinking they used a drone to carry it that distance!! 🤷🏼♂️....most definitely were fishing for sharks!
@@ThomasJones-ij6hvit actually makes no sense. Nobody fishes for swordfish from the beach. And catching giant groupers from the beach is almost as unlikely
@@ericduncan7266I’d rather remove the hook. The myth of “it will rust out” is a myth. We always try to bring sharks boatside and cut the hook in half so it falls out.
@@ericduncan7266 Yes BRO. 🙄 Fish hooks rust, but it takes months to rust through. Try this, tie a line to a 10/0 circle hook. Tie it to a dock and suspend it in saltwater and see how long it takes to rust away.
@@danevannett3804 if you can’t land it, how do you know it’s a protected species and how do you take the hook out? Sounds like a stupid law. He didn’t take the photo, somebody else did. 😊
I would have nightmares, just knowing that I was in the water with that thing in the dark at night in the water. Nope, not me. I would truly have nightmares.
You don't get in ocean water at night (at least more than about ten inches deep) if you have a brain. It's a very bad practice. Been walking on the beach many times at night and heard a splash over the sound of the waves, I have no desire to discover firsthand what made those splashes. You can miss rip current indicators too easy at night also.
No no no, according to my coworkers we don't have tiger or great whites in the Atlantic, which after I pointed out the west coast of South Africa is in the Atlantic and that's a great white shark feeding grounds. Can't tell high-school dropouts that are 60 years old anything, they're older and know more, which is why they're 60 years old and still laying brick
Howd he get it back into the water, also if he caught it off the pier he ran all the way to the beach with it. If youd ever fished off a lier snd had to do this you know its a workout. Hopefully the shark survived
2 of them like that ate Cameron Robbins when he jumped off the boat at night ...in less than a minute he was gone.😢..one came up behind him and one popped up in front of him.
And when its released and the shark goes back all stressed and weak with a big hole in the side of its mouth( possibly the hook still in cut off and it has a hard time finding food of its own because it aint in 100 percent shape and it attacks a human people will wonder why or how could this happen. Animals and fish as they get weak/ old or injured do whatever to survive... Im sure you just happened to have a monster rod/reel/ steel leader/ huge hook, fighting belt prob just for other species of fish right??? Hey at least you got your cool pic bro!
People would never go in the water if they saw the amount of sharks swimming within feet of them every time they go in the water.
Sharks only eat women
@@RoboCop-zn8bt We need a beach day show for the women from The View. Need to heavily chum the water prior upon entry.
Holly ship! Good to know there's sharks that big in Florida water.Thanks, I'll be staying on shore this summer

We live just a couple miles from Jax beach. This is why I had a swimming pool installed many years ago. Shalom
You are 100s of 1000s times more likely to get struck by lightning than be attacked by a shark.
@@danevannett3804 I still prefer our pool rather that a dirty beach filled with jerks. Shalom
You’re still taking a small risk of getting attacked by a shark swimming in the ocean. The chance is small but it’s a risk nonetheless.

All hippos are huge not all sharks are.
@@Anthony-te7lo Adult tiger sharks are always huge, just like hippos. If you see one that's not, it's not "small" but young.
Compared to a human 12 feet is massive 🙄
They’re massive relative to a human lol
@@Anthony-te7loActually, that is the typical size for a tiger...they can get bigger than that. 👍
Ok how put that thing back in the water?
I’ve caught a lot of sharks off of that pier! Small ones but this is nuts
He wasn't fishing for sharks? But his regular fishing poll was able to reel that massive sharks inshore? Mmmk.
A grouper weighs as much or more than a tiger shark, and a Swordfish is bigger yet, even sailfish weigh 200 pounds.
@Diggletsdad ssshhhh 🤫, your making sense. Don't be a jerk and let the OP have his daily dose of outrage.😂

@@ThomasJones-ij6hvthere’s about a 0% chance he catches a grouper that large if at all from the beach. And definitely ain’t catching no sailfish
@@ThomasJones-ij6hvit actually makes no sense. Nobody fishes for swordfish from the beach. And catching giant groupers from the beach is almost as unlikely
You're not allowed to land it? Then how are you supposed to get the hook out? 🤔
Cut the line
Cut the line

@@user-vx7vi3vq1c it’s not a myth lol 😂 what the hell. Salt water and metal doesn’t mix bro.

You can't take a photo of what you catch?
If it's protected you can't land it, therefore *no* you can't take pictures with it.
@@danevannett3804 if you can’t land it, how do you know it’s a protected species and how do you take the hook out? Sounds like a stupid law. He didn’t take the photo, somebody else did. 😊
@@danevannett3804Glad he did it. The shark was released.
@@eddiehaskell5578 when you get visual of the species and its protected, you have to cut the line.
Maybe he forgot his glasses, it was nighttime and he wasn’t sure what species it was 😂. I’m definitely taking a pic
That shark _really_ looks humiliated
Beautiful shark.

Sure swim near that pier
No no no, according to my coworkers we don't have tiger or great whites in the Atlantic, which after I pointed out the west coast of South Africa is in the Atlantic and that's a great white shark feeding grounds.

Sounds good they definitely looking for a shark you ain't catching a shark on a shrimp come on now nice catch....
Of course, he could've been for any large fish to see what he catches.
Defiantly had a rig on there strong enough to pull that beast in.
Howd he get it back into the water, also if he caught it off the pier he ran all the way to the beach with it. If youd ever fished off a lier snd had to do this you know its a workout. Hopefully the shark survived
He broke the law to bring on the beach
That's about the same size of the Tiger Shark that ate that guy in Egypt a few months ago. It was awful!
2 of them like that ate Cameron Robbins when he jumped off the boat at night ...in less than a minute he was gone.😢..one came up behind him and one popped up in front of him.
@@suzanne1430 Yes, something got him....there was no traces of him left.
About how much would it weigh?
It could be up to 800 pounds
And when its released and the shark goes back all stressed and weak with a big hole in the side of its mouth( possibly the hook still in cut off and it has a hard time finding food of its own because it aint in 100 percent shape and it attacks a human people will wonder why or how could this happen.

Those animals "belong" in the water for the echo system's health, good move to release it back where it belongs....
Why did he catch a shark? 🤔
He said in the video, he didn't set out to catch a shark.
Whoa 😳
Awesome catch. I’m happy for him.
Stupid rule
Yikes!
Tell me you let it go
Nice catch. Probably would be delicious if they were legal to keep.
lmao your not allowed to take photo:::caption shows a pic of the shark hahaha
