  • No dudes, this is real. It's a show coming to Discovery channel or something, called "Extreme Fishing". Look it up

  • its a real show but this video was on the news saying it was fake he jumped of a boat but still thats pretty amazing and he does some pretty cool stuff on the show like catching marlin on surf board

  • it's actually called the itm fishing show if u didn't know.

  • This is 100% real seeing it was on rude tube.

  • Gorgeous....

  • Awe some kiwis rule dis proves that we gan do any hting we put our mind to

  • that is amazing

    i hope its real

  • what he actually did was jump from a boat onto it if all u kiwis watched matt watsons show after he aired this you would all have seen the actual video he just wanted 2 be famous for jumping out of a helicopter on this marlin but its still fucking impresive....and im from new zealand all new zealanders are talented harddd!!!!!!!!! its how we do it

  • Matt Watson is my hero!

  • hahahah great

  • WOW

  • Partially FAKE! a " Green " Marlin would easily dislodge a "GRABBER". That fish had already been played out and was recovering. You would never be able to have a diver in the perfect position with a noisey Copter over head and think the fish would slugishly "Pose". Lets see the "GRABBER" do that with a Great White! Now that would be impressive.

    Still a bit ballsy what he did but not quite as courageous when you see how it really was. I have caught many marlin ...they are pure muscle...

  • lmao dude he does it with all kinds of fish

  • That marlin had to have already been played out . A " Green " marlin would never let that happen. They are pure muscle and it easily would have dislodged him. Still pretty crazy thou and very dangerous. But I highly doubt he could have jumped from a copter on a " Green " fish with a camerman perfectly positioned there. More likly the fish had just been released and was tired and recovering when he landed on it, Now lets see him do that on a Great White! Played out or not that would be heavy....

  • Reasons this is fake:

    1.Jumps with glasses on lands with them off.

    2. Anyone with basic knowledge on marlins knows that a marlin is extremely fast and agile and if it wasn't caught before there would be no way in hell he could hold it like that.

    3. And finally the camera man was right next to the fish! They were looking randomly for a marlin in a helicopter and the camera man is already there. Then the helicopter flies off without him!

    Gullible gullible viewers

  • a good bit of camera work on a tired fsh

  • I thought this was fake..O_o

    Isn't it?? Does anyone have proof of it not being??

    Thanks in advance.

  • Fucking typical mad KIWI

  • Even if it is fake (which it probably isn't) it's still awesome.

  • to stop thearguments :) this fish had already been cought with a rod and reel. and it was some good camera work. its a real fish and hes is riding it like it shows but it was a set up. cool anyway and he cought a marlin on a surfboard xstream

  • Hi Matt I love you show and book it every Saturday, if you ever plan on heading to South Africa to catch the big and fearsome looking tiger fish, please I would like a signed dvd copy if possible

  • Diving from a helicopter would create much more of an impact then that. At best he jumped from a tall fishing boat. Prove me wrong.

  • You know that fish was like "Wow, what a nice day, I think I'm going to go eat some fiWHATTHEFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUC­KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGHHHHHHH"

  • New Zealand: hil yis.

  • that shit is frickin sick as hell, why are so much people hating on this?

  • awesome vid, Some of you faggs need to get lifes and stop hating on people man, just cause the guy got fame and use dont, its realer then real can get mate no matter what use say about GLASSES or SHOES or CAMERAMAN or SETUPS !!! Hes from NEW ZEALAND MAN... we kiwi's are fucking talented !!!

  • the man!!!

  • Fake.

    Fail.

  • How is this fake, or fail?

    Care to elaborate?

  • Care to elaborate?

    TV show. Key word - SHOW!

    No one sees him jumping - catching fish, just jump - then underwater (pool) catching, simple edit!

    That's how I would do.

    Common it's a fucking helicopter flying over the fish they are not intelligent granted, but sound of the helicopter?

  • the only thing edited is that he jumps from a boat & not a helicopter because of there tight bugdet restraints the rest is real.

  • you guys are fucking idiots, you cant fake that and make it look that real

  • Wow you guys are really cool saying its so fake. I hope you feel proud now. Losers.

  • Nice try--why was the cameraman in such the perfect spot??

  • Total crap--vibrations from the chopper would scatter the fish from that height, no way he could tell it was a Marlin from the chopper, and why was there a cameraman 20 yards from the drop--nice try

  • why is he wearing shoes on the side of the helicopter, and then is barefoot when he's in the water? Fake.

  • he's barefoot on the side and when he jumps. it never shows him with shoes on...

  • slow mo when he comes to the surface. just as it shows him above water there is nothing in his arms. no bill, no fish. FAKE!!! full set up!!

  • that is so dangerous

  • Thats a Kiwi for ya

    nice catch bro

  • One thing I struggle with is he has his sunglasses on when he jumps out of the chopper....Seems real, but makes me question if this is real

  • I know when I fish, sunglasses can help you see down below the surface. It helps take away the glare and bright light.

  • i use to try to jump in water with sunglasses on from 1 meter hight and quickly figured out that it was an bad idea. Other - didn't he shoot hit hard by this fish jumping on it from that highs? Even little objects in the water can cause you big damage.

  • polarized sunglasses remove glare from the water and make it possible to see under the water. they are great for fishing, especially fly fishing so you can see the fish under the water.

  • "we're always looking for exciting new ways to go fishing" wonder why that is....

  • HOLY CRAP! that was amazing!i!

  • LOL i bet the fish was pissed off XD LOL

  • WHAT THE FUCK

  • dude hes so awsome. AND HES FROM NEW ZEALAND

  • i love matt watson. i am jacob. matt pushes my self-esteem, now i think i'm sexy. because of matt watson. i am jacob. matt pushes my self-esteem, now i think i'm sexy. because of matt.

  • you are jacob, and you are a real man (like matt watson)

  • haha you got a laugh out of me

  • is crazy

  • wow. and luckily they had just enough time to let the camera diver jump in and set up for his shot before the guy jumped in on the unsuspecting fish

  • Menudo payaso!!! habría que hacerle a el lo mismo.

    Deja en paz a los peces!!!!

  • DUDE

  • this dude's the shit.........

  • He jumped off the back of the boat after they released it

  • its real you stupid fuckers, he was on david letterman, he does all kinds of crazy fishing stuff

  • I've seen it all...great editing. How can anyone really think this is real though? I'm a commercial fisherman and that just would'nt happen. Think about it....it would take hundreds of times to get this down....he would have been stabbed by a marlin's bill eventually. Great entertainment though!

  • Imagine being the fish WTF

  • This guy is NUTS i have fished for marlin and if they want they could FUCK YOU UP!!!

  • im nuts TOO!!!! lol. i personally wouldnt want to but if i was dared i would!

  • nice

  • FAKE but funny.

  • its not fake ass

  • not fake you fucking retard

  • real and cool

  • where'd his sunglasses go? he was wearing them in the chopper shot. i couldn't imagine trying to purposely lose my sunglasses ever(i'm cheap).

  • It's like how a ginnet citches fush.

  • lmfao

  • Hactic way to catch a marlin

  • I just saw this guy on tv, his fucking badass

  • sooooo they just left him there?

  • BAHAHAHA that fish is like WTF???

  • BALLS OF STEEL!!!

  • .......

  • That's how I get the ladies to date me...

    actually...saw it this morning on the Today Show...he had a lot of "attempts" and got lucky when the boat camera man was in-line for it. He said he wouldn't give away all his secrets though.

  • i gotta try that

  • It would be logistically impossible to have a cameraman right at the spot of the fish as he hits the water. Also, I would assume that marlins are pretty fast fish and why couldn't it just swim away when he hit the water, before he had a chance to grab him? I'm assuming they've drugged the fish to slow him down, therefore keeping him in a place to be caught. Just too many variables to have this happen... more like a 1 in a million shot and just not believable.

  • They interviewed that guy today on the morning show, he said it took months of trying that to get it right and the cameras were the hardest bit to set up. I guess he just got lucky!

  • What a complete and utter fucking nutjob.

  • Great stuff, the camera man was well positioned under water wasn't he? If you think this is real, you are an idiot!

  • it is real trust

  • Wait, don't be to hasty to call someone an idiot. You are very observant about the fish and then the guy diving as thought they caught the images coincidentally. However, its real, and here is how it works:

    They had what's called "Second Unit" which are a film crew to film the fish on a completely different day (that's OK, doesn't matter) and then the diving and grabbing of the Marlin was filmed the same day he dived with both camera crew. One in the helicopter several at sea.

  • mental, love it!

  • wat a lege

  • HAHAHAHA imagine a thing randomly drops from the 'sky' and catches you...pretty scary

  • didn''t even lose his sunnies

  • kiwis are legends

You don't see it but he has a tag in between his teeth....Ohhh just like Rambo...but he doesn't kill anything. Gosh I like this Kiwi.

  • This is Real. The camera crew was on a Boat and wud have been the ones to call them to the workup. How do you think they got the shot of the heli from underneath. while he was waiting to jump the divers wud hav been in the water cameras ready. And no the marlin wudnt hav been able to swim away it wud not have even seen him coming. Watch the ITM fishing show and then u will realise this is not so hard to beleive. If it was Fake Matt wudve said so
