Watch What Happens When A Girl Fishing And A Shark Fight Over The Same Catch

I’ve never really understood the appeal of fishing. I get the excitement of reeling in a huge catch, but that’s never seemed like enough of a high to make up for the hours of downtime. Turns out I’ve been completely mistaken, but apparently, fishing is sometimes the craziest, most action-packed leisure activity in existence. Take that, Scrabble.

Earlier this week, a video began making the rounds featuring three friends calmly fishing off a dock. The girl lets her buddy with the camera know she’s about to haul in a fish; so, he strolls over with the camera and turns it on the water just in time to see a gigantic shark emerge and steal the catch. It’s horrifying and great at the same time. You can take a look at the footage below…

You have to love the torrent of swear words that collectively pour out of everyone’s mouths after seeing the shark. It’s absolute bedlam. It’s hard to criticize though when most of us would have behaved exactly the same way including screaming at the dude inside to tell him the nonsense he just missed.

I’m not saying I’m ready to start fishing, but if I see a few more videos like this, provided no one dies in them, I might actually be tempted out on the lake to catch some of the excitement.
