DOCS: Landing Sharks

DOCS: Landing Sharks
SUBSCRIBE to the Barcroft network: bit.ly/Oc61Hj
A CONTROVERSIAL team of fishermen catch enormous sharks while their feet are firmly planted on dry land. The practice, which has been condemned by animal rights groups, will be featured in a brand new Barcroft Original Documentary 'Landing Sharks.' Team True Blue, which features Earnie Polk, 43, his cousins Joey Polk, 29, Kenny Peterson, 21 and friend William Smith, 21, attempt to break their own world records by reeling in the giant sea beasts from the shore. The team often spend up to seven days a week trying to catch gigantic tiger and mako sharks from the shores of Florida, USA and claim that the practice helps with shark conservation. But animal rights activists claim the sport is cruel and leads to suffering and often death for the sharks. Last Summer Barcroft followed the team on an epic two-day excursion to a secret location where they attempted to land, tag and release sharks.

[@Tekshit]

"Sharks suffer immensely when their caught" oh I wonder how much you'll suffer when a shark catches you...

[@gormok9558]

Human has kill way more shark than shark kill human because of the same thought as your `oh......those shark are going to kill us for food so we must extinct them！(And kill them for fun

[@sala321ify]

I love that this person actually let it back in water! There are many fisherman that ''take the prize'' home, so i have all my respect for this person.... I love sharks with all my heart.

[@BadRonald1]

Didn't you hear what the girl said ? Most likely the sharks will eventually die just from being pulled out of the water that 1 time.

[@bluehorizon5149]

Well I hate them, I'd wipe every single one of them off the planet.

[@679mid]

Yeah lots of sharks have to go forward to breathe and... they don't keep holding it or whatever, real scientist sometimes had to tie the shark to the boat and allow it to rest, if it ever go down and rest on the ground cause it's too exausted to continue, it's just gonna die. Just take a look at it... look at how the sharks on the vid have all their fight gone... they are all pretty much dead... taking years of growing up to die out just cause a guy wanted some trill and a picture.

[@ashleygalicia9192]

STOP FISHING SHARKS AND I THINK THIS SHOULD BE AGAINST THE LAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHO AGREES?

[@bingusfart4349]

Sharks are endangered: they are an extremely important part of our ecosystem and without them our underwater ecosystem would go to shit.

[@zenrhys589]

TIMMY THICC bro sharks arent endangered only great white and ghost sharks are. also bees are endangered but u have proba ly killed 1 in your lifetime

[@Nathaliaaa666]

Btw REAL MEN do not abuse animals spineless cowards subhuman waste of space wtf is wrong with these deranged individuals no respect for other sentient living beings what a sad world we live in indeed!:(we are the scum of the animal kingdom as simple as that this makes me furious!

[@Hi-ot3zz]

[@Julia-sl1ff]

So funny it would have been if the shark turned around and bit him

[@MulchCake]

ANIMAL CRUELTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@exivtv]

This is awful. Why on earth some sick people have to enjoy infilcting such terrible tortures to other living creatures?

[@barefootbab]

you better be a vegan after saying that.

[@exivtv]

+TheMurda16 indeed I am. And it's all my pleasure. I also donate blood 4 times a year, and I practise TJF Jiu-Jitsu... just to confirm the fact that we can live a good life without causing suffering to other creatures.

[@barefootbab]

+EXIV that's good for you. shark fishing is a huge sport all over the coasts of the world, almost all of the sharks are released.

[@exivtv]

+TheMurda16 BUt this practise is painful for them. It's unjust and cruel. I know I am talking about a bloody predator, but I see no nobility in inficting pain to others, even if it is an animal or a fish. We are all animals, yes, but we can use our minds to evolve ourselves and be better creatures, it's all up to us. We need to stop to act as primitives, and start taking action to do good things.

[@tristanspear9889]

Save sharks or stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No the sharks so sad if you feel bad like this comment

[@wynonabruh495]

Kill people

[@anawhoop2500]

this is absolutely disgusting. they have no idea how important sharks are for the ecological system. there absolutely should be consequences for these people.

[@isajanssen2481]

This is horrible... The shark is going to be extinct, if they don't stop doing thoose horrible things to the sharks... The should be arrested in my opinion. :(

[@splashdraco686]

That’s good that u put it back I think if so u are the best shark fisher men ever

[@justapillow2443]

[@Debonairfox]

[@melnaiemonaco7564]

[@juliagatto2649]

Sharks are beautiful, wonderful creatures. They belong in the sea, not in some hick's backyard.

[@duanetrivett750]

Yuppie cow

[@mockingbird3460]

[@iilucidrxseiiowo8852]

Why won’t they leave the poor SHARKS ALONE!!!

[@daniedurham1256]

once there are no more sharks, the ocean ecosystem will crash, there is a reason to why these beautiful animals have been around literally since the dawn of time.

[@mcfrdmn]

Very interesting video !

[@jb678901]

Simple question to PETA...have any of the etags been retrieved many days, months, years from the initial tagging? What are the facts?

[@Summer-dp7dh]

Sharks are nelly instinct

[@tablf539]

this is soooooo fricking sad. The fishermen are cruel, evil people

[@theinspectah3438]

these childish guys do it to pass the time. I would have liked to see their boat capsized and they themselves were the hunted, just like that

[@joanalopes2938]

Never been so early to a video

[@yoongaby4713]

why did they catch the shark

[@pcan9872]

This is barbaric. This is causing such a huge impact to the eco system. The USA and many other countries need tougher law on these idiots and these barbaric practices 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

[@supermegapvpuniverse1483]

Why can't you just fucking leave the Sharks alone?

[@Nivrad6Dmanindahouse]

So cruel!

[@peterfrancis9437]

This is y it's a great time to find something better to watch than this tragedy to nature

[@GuoSlice]

what are the laws and regulations for catching shark?

[@TheJeggs44]

+Mike Guo totally legal to do

[@GuoSlice]

lol never accused of it being illegal... just wondering what the size and head count limits are for sharks

[@TheJeggs44]

1 a day per person over 54" i believe but alot of species are protected

[@lazarofalcon5448]

Shark fishing is insane skrew you shark fishermen

[@movethebox1503]

Stop catching these animal no wonder there man eaters plz let them live free in the sea

[@lizzihuskey7264]

I hate shark fishing. They should be under the endangered species list!

[@ProfessionalR3tard]

i've shark fished many times before, but only assholes go for big sharks off of piers or bridges..... off the beach you don't hurt the sharks... but dragging them 30 feet up to a pier is kinda cruel....

[@danieladellavecchia1131]

it does look really bad when they drag them up :/

[@danieladellavecchia1131]

+Typical gamer haha as a typical gamer we know that's false

[@ProfessionalR3tard]

Typical gamer i'll ignore the last part of that comment and argue with the first part, i've eaten sharks many times... nobody eats big sharks, once they get over about 4 feet, they taste like shit

[@ProfessionalR3tard]

Daniela Dellavecchia yeah, fishing from the beach i'll admit is a bit fucked too, cause the shark expels so much energy, but at least you're not causing immense physical damage to them....

[@ProfessionalR3tard]

Wynona Bureta at least i'm not chinese and catching sharks, taking their fins, then dropping them into the water to die :)

[@mehwishmohsin572]

I accidentally tapped this video and this is what I got. :( :( :(

[@jasminevillatoro5400]

Stop it your hurting it

[@JHKH4]

i don't get it how do people enjoy this?

[@horseexplorer4818]

You trying to catch the largest shark i'll try phoning the police

[@VfletchS]

"the practice helps with shark conservation" Hmm... I wonder which is more likely to help with conservation? Killing sharks, or not killing sharks? I bet these guys are all over-compensating for something.

[@maxpaek9495]

That is so cruel. It is mean

[@ena3081]

NOT FOOD,you hear it right

[@joshuacarroll9287]

I'm ok with this if they released the Sharks, but they kill the Sharks

[@TheJeggs44]

+King Jawsh they only keep makos and blacktips all other sharks are released

[@omarambon883]

Don't u get when they say A shark kill 2-6 people every year but A human kill 100 - 150 sharks every day So leave sharks fucking alone

[@gracegarland7577]

I might not like sharks, I'm scared of them. But I disagree with this and I hate that sharks are being killed.
