Shark Attack Or?

It looks more like the shark was entangled and less like it was actually attacking but hey, whatever gets the viewers

If you look at the time stamp it was in March. If it was such a big deal how did it escape the media hype for so long. It was something, and probably scary, but I like the tangle theory or maybe the guy was trolling a stringer of fish, and the poor little shark was hungry. Next thing you know the media will be attacking Kayakkers for harassing sharks.

looks like a thresher, guessing he made a crucial error in trying to release or land it.

Looking closer you can see the long tail, and the way he's thrashing around he could very well be hooked on something.

It definitely looks like a Thresher tangled or most likely still hooked and trying to get away. It looks like as soon as it broke free he high tailed it. LOL.

Pretty sure I remember hearing about this...maybe even here. GWS breach attacked the kayak and then chewed on it for a while. Homeboy lived but he needs some new waders.
