I'm surprised this wasn't posted already.

Couple of things that make me go..."hmmmm".

1. This wasn't the smartest way to deal with a shark. Publicizing it on the news media probably doesn't help, promote our sport.

2. He says he was worried if he tied everything down. I didn't see any rods before he flipped. Almost looks staged; like he stowed everything away with the intention of flipping the yak.

3. Why not just let it go instead of flipping?

Maybe I'm just a cynic.
