Default Caught a shark - with his bare hands
Caught a shark - with his bare hands
"Nothing I recommend”

Phillip Kerkhof caught a 1,3m long copper shark with his hands while fishing outside the south coast of Australia.
– I sneaked up behind and grabbed for him, and luckily I got him, he told Reuters.

The 41-year-old fisherman was in the area of Louth Bay (Southern Australia), a place well known for it's sharks and the movie "Jaws", which was shot in the surroundings.

According to himself, Phillips had consumed a decent amount of alcohol before the actual event. The fisherman is said to have had at least a pair glasses of vodka before he went a rond with the shark.
In retrospect he realized it probably wasnt the smartest thing he had done.
– It is not something I recommend. When I sobered up, I realized it was an idiotic thing to do.
