WTF! 375 Pound Shark Leaps Into Fisherman's Boat (VIDEO)
by Jack Ryan


If only Moby Dick was this easy. An 8-foot shark called a "Flying Mako Shark" jumped onto a Texas fisherman's boat. Because of the size of the shark, it wasn't a catch you could throw back to the ocean.

Jason Kresse and two of his crew members were reportedly dumping fish guts into the ocean around 3:45 a.m. That is when they heard a splashing sound nearby. The next thing they knew, something hit and fell inside of their 25-foot boat.

Aol News wrote, "A shark in an apparent rush to feed had jumped into the back and was thrashing around. Kresse says the crew couldn't get close to the 375-pound fish to toss it back in the water. It died several hours later."

The unnamed shark is currently being displayed at the seafood business in Freeport. Kresse plans to get the shark mounted on the wall at the store. (c) tPC
