750 pound Mako Shark

A 750-pound shark was caught 18 miles off the Fort Lauderdale coast this weekend. On Sautrday, a group of fisherman cam across a 10-foot long Mako shark eating a swordfish.

Jamie Bunn filmed friends Danny Massa, Jeremy Huston and John Monti as they struggled for 20 minutes to capture the 750-pound Mako shark. Using the swordfish as bait, the men managed to snag the 750-pound shark, but not before it bit the boat's exhaust and propellers. 

For the record, the shark weighed in officially at 748 pounds, but who's counting.
