450 pound Black Marlin eaten by shark

This 450 pound black marlin was caught off Cairns, Australia. After about 22 minutes it panicks and goes down deep, where the sharks live. Big mistake. At least we got to keep the Bill! As for the size, its the Captain who makes the call, not me. Barry Cross (skip) estimated it to be around 450lbs, so thats what i go with even though i might agree with some that its closer to 350 than 450. For a reference, at the end of the video when i'm holding the head, i'm 6'4". It might also be helpful to know that the boat is 65ft long and has a beam (width) of 17.5ft.

Go to www.mvjoejoe.com for more info on the awesome boat! There is a professional DVD out with this footage on it, go to www.bransfords.com.au to buy.

I read this as 450 lb. black man eaten by shark. I feel rather sheepish right now.

1.) Stop the video at 2:37, make sure to keep it muted.

2.) Open a new tab with youtube and add this. /watch?v=_cXLYxx1yBA

(2nd video with sound)

3.) Play at same time and enjoy the epic fisherman's struggle.

I dont get why there is a need to respond sarcastically. Just say you get the area of an object times whatever carry the one add your birthday equals blahhh.

[JDSurratt1]

You've never found the area of an object have you?

....."after about 22 minutes it panics" ....what the fuck was it suppose to do, jump in the boat??

[Jason Ferro]

that blows, it wouldve been amazing if the shark stayed on the marlin and the guy caught both but then again its not a catfish so awallowing whole isnt and option

FYI that was about a 175 lbs marlin, not 450. Good video nonetheless

to endure.
