A wild meeting with a high-flying shark caught on camera in Maine is going viral.
A man on a fishing boat off Maine caught the unbelievable moment a cobalt blue mako shark jumped aboard this August.
"All of a sudden, here he was in my face," said Sinclair's 15-year-old grandson, Cameron, who has been on working with his grandfather on charters since he was a toddler.The moment was particularly remarkable to him because, he said, even though he has spent years on his grandfather's boat, he had not seen his first mako shark until early August.
Both he and his grandfather were worried the shark had hit someone or could hurt one of the people on the boat with its teeth. "My first thoughts were injuries," Dave Sinclair said."We had a boat of young guys, one young gentleman was fighting the fish." Fortunately, despite the face-to-fin encounter, no one was hurt and within seconds the mako was tagged and back in the water."I don't think I'm ever going to be that surprised again," Cameron Sinclair said.
