Me: Let’s write a blog about a great white shark just days before I go on vacation.
And why not?
They’re only one of the coolest animals to ever exist, despite how terrifying they can be. Just ask these fishermen in Massachusetts who got rolled up on by a great white while out at sea.
Posted by AccuWeather on TikTok, a video spotlights a great white shark in its youth swimming around the fishermen and their boat. And it wasn’t that he was just swimming around them, it was almost like he was investigating the scene, or even more diabolical, attempting to toy with the boys’ inner peace.
This is especially true when it looks like the shark is trying to take a chunk out of the boat at one point.

What’s up with all of these shark sightings as of late?
I understand it’s peak season, but it feels like we’ve had a lot more than usual, and of course this is happening when I’m about to take a two-week vacation in a hotspot for sharks. Yes, I’m talking about Florida, Southwest Florida to be exact where the Gulf waters get very warm, and you know what that means …
No, not hurricanes! Well, that too, but sharks! Lots of them! (RELATED: Wild Video Shows Fisherman Nearly Getting Stabbed To Death By Marlin)
Needless to say, I’ll be staying my ass in the pool, and even then, I’ve gotta keep an eye out for alligators.
Florida, baby. Florida.
