An Australian surfer’s leg rope got hooked on a large shark, resulting in an unexpected wild ride at sea.
John Morgan, a 51-year-old surf shop owner… said he was about 330 yards from shore and paddling out when the 10-foot shark swelled up from underneath him Sunday afternoon.
“It freaked me out,” Morgan said. “It bumped my leg rope and next thing it tangled itself in the leg rope and started charging out to sea with me in tow. To say it was like being towed by a jet ski might be an exaggeration, but it was really fast,” he added.
Morgan said he clung to the board until the shark suddenly freed itself and disappeared.
Yeah, I know. That story sucks. Sorry. But hey, up top is the badass video of great whites eating seals in slow-motion from Discovery’s “Planet Earth.” Get high and watch that, then this story will be way better. You’ll be all, “Dude, I wanna hitch a ride on a shark, man. A shark! Holy crap that would be wild.” At least, that’s what I’ve been told people talk like when they’re high. I disapprove of illegal drug use. Unless I’m giving cocaine to strippers.

Sharks are so awesome. They dont get cancer and they can probably beat up a dinosaur.
You know what they say “Some days your the seal, some days your the dude getting kidnapped by a great white”

Im gonna cheer myself up with some Kent state videos.
Strippers and cocaine, nothing is better in the animal kingdom
In addition to punching the bear in the previous post, I would have punched this shark, too.
What, you think I talk about punching things in the face too much? That’s it, buddy, you just made the list.
AHHHHHH, SHARK BOY!
330 yards from shore! Where the fuck was this idiot surfing. He paddled out the equivalent of 3+ football fields. I call bullshit. He was trying to rape a shark.
