worked for global divers out of new iberia LA. for several years. we took the divers to the rigs so they could make repairs. we had to call a helicopter out one night to fly a diver back from a rig he said a jew fish sucked him in and spit him out. he was so freaked out he wouldnt even get back on the boat. we had to bring him his clothes and get his dive gear off him from the rig.

In the 1960's, Elmo Horine caught one off of Fort Pickens that weighed 425lbs. He sold it to Jo Patti's for a nickel a pound! He was shark fishing and it ate a whole bonita.

In the early 70's a guy diving off Durban beach in South Africa shot one with a speargun. He had nothing but mask flipper, goggles and snorkel. It towed him out to sea several miles then in to the harbormany hours later. A harbor security patrol vessel opened up on it with .50 browning as he had it at the surface already and he ripped them a new one for spoiling his record.

He fought it formany hours and it weighed over 600 lbs. Having personally caught the Tiger and Bull sharks in thatarea allI can say it that man had a pair. Or was dumber than a donut hole; never quite worked than one out.
