Still my favorite part

A Florida fisherman caught a record-setting 805-pound shark earlier this month, and then celebrated by barbecuing the 11-foot mako and devouring it with friends.

I love the OT. Like you wouldn't flip your shite if this thing swam by you while you're out at the beach?

Yes, indeed I would. If you have ever parasailed above clear ocean water it is amazing how many big fish you can see that are near people and they have no idea..

Undersell of the year, imo. He made Jared Allen his bitch...I think at the end JA was a sniveling, little coward willing to buy him drinks.

Good god. This may be the most reposted thing ever.

ETA: I guess it hasn't been posted on the OT yet. It's going for a record on the OB.
