Florida man carries around giant shark, promotes fishing to followers
The man, known as “Hood Fishing Entertainment” on social media, documented himself carrying a large shark as if “he had just caught a catfish,” one Instagram commenter wrote.
A Florida man published images and footage of himself holding and walking around with a live shark to his Instagram account in late February.
The man, known as “Hood Fishing Entertainment” on social media, documented himself carrying a large shark as if “he had just caught a catfish,” one Instagram commenter wrote.
In the video, the man proceeded to hold the large fish by the tail and take it for a modest walk in the shallow end of the beach, all while sporting a wide grin and acting seemingly unconcerned about the fact that he was handling a large sea predator.

“Crocodile Hunter ain’t got s**t on the Shark Catcher,” another commenter wrote.

After the walk, the man released the shark, which then began swimming back into the ocean.
