Dude jumps on a basking shark of Mass.

Saw this on a blog this morning and figured some of guy guys might find it worth watching.

I thought it was pretty funny but some people seem to think it was cruel. Opinions?

Would have been funny if it turned around on him..

I find it kind of cruel since basking sharks appear to be a wee bit on the slow side, if you get what I mean. Besides, could you jump on such a happy-looking and toothless shark?



Just look at it, it's "smiling" and "happy!"

i dont get it i guess? am thinking he just took a hitch hike on the sharks back, thats toatlly fine i think why not? your not hurting the shark in anyway, the shark is just pulling a few more pounds which to that size of a shark with a person on him would feel/seem like nothing! hahah

that was pretty much my thinking, the shark swam off unscathed and the guy had some fun

But i think its cruel cause sense the shark was minding its own business they he came along and jumped on his back. He wouldnt like it if it was the other way around

Seems pointless. Would have been more interesting had the shark been a tiger or bull shark.
