They went out for a little fishing and encountered the scariest catch ever

Cue the Jaws references and puns.

Cue the Jaws references and puns ... which are totally relevant because these poor fisherman are going to need a bigger boat if they plan of catching something other than their deaths out there.

That's because this bad-ass great white shark comes out of nowhere, trying to tear down their boat in a likely effort to secure a more tasty treat.

The attack happened of near Frenchman Island in New Zealand, Feb. 20.

They're lucky the shark wasn't too interested in human flesh that day, as after a few moments of circling their boat, he decided it wasn't worth it and swam away. Sharks are either not very persistent, or very patient. I don't think anyone wants to find out which.
