Kayaker Next To 20ft Shark
 
Basking shark, that is. Still makes him look small.

Captain Linda Cavitt caught some footage of a 20-foot basking shark from the safety of the pier in Panama City Beach, Florida. Josh, the kayaker, was a bit closer.

Lol... I wouldn't even kow what the shark likes to eat. I consider myself good eating. I filled with all sorts of meat and spices.

I would of taken out my knife and prepared for the worst case scenario.

Basking sharks have a huge mouth and allow massive amounts of water pass through - they probably filter out krill and other small food.

From the kayaker's perpective I probably would have filled my undies, cause a sight like that, I wouldn't have thought to myself ... "huh, look at that perfect specimen of a Basking shark" rather..."holy $#!t, I am in deep
doo doo"...
Thanks for the video... "I think you need a bigger boat"
