Alright guys/gals…I cannot say if this is legit or not, but it sure looks like it. You can see more on their website, but here is a link to a video that blew me away. This is pretty crazy stuff.
I’m not buying it. No one would jump head first out of a Helicopter let alone while wearing sunglass. I think that they caught the bill fish from a boat, the fish was released damn tired and after the release while the fish was still getting it’s bearing they video taped that scene. How else would they already have a camera man in the water next to the bill fish while someone was in a copter overhead. Nope, no way real.
Not a chance of it being real…
Notice they spend all the time filming from the helicopter …until the guy jumps out. Extremely fake and extremely rude to do to an already tired out fish that was caught in the normal way…from a boat. SICK
That clip reminds me of the old Marlin Perkins Wild Kingdom show. Marlin was always trying to trap, lasso, wrestle or otherwise harass some poor animal trying to get a little peace and quite. “While Jim tries to handcuff this very angry pair of Alaskan brown bears, let talk about auto insurance.” 8T
I can’t imagine a fish like that would be easily subdued if it wasn’t already pooped out. I’ve got the feeling if you jumped on one of those with a full tank of gas that you’d go for a ride.
