Frank and Mike Pitten spent their summer in Scituate, Massachusetts when the dramatic came to their lives. While out on their boat, the two got a view of a great white shark, as it almost surfaced under the boat. After he spoke with Michael, Frank said he got the feeling that this was a ‘‘one-time opportunity.”
Father and Son Encounter with Massive Great White Shark Leaves People Shocked
The father and a son hunting for a humpback whale carcass which was reported in Cape Cod Bay. Were aware of recent shark sightings, for instance, two sharks had been spotted feeding of a dead whale but they never thought they would encounter something similar.
The two brothers Frank and Mike were also interviewed in NBC 10 Boston where they expressed their surprise. I never dreamt that there would be one that big six miles from Scituate,” Frank said when they were near the mammal that swam under their 29-foot boat. Mike supplemented, “The shark that we saw, I would guess, was 20 feet give or take and the most shocking part about it was the girth of the thing.
This large shark was even capable of driving of a gang of five small sharks who were also feeding on the dead whale. It was recorded on video by Mike and the clip soon went viral on the internet.
Luckily, the Pittens did not sustain any injuries but the experience as they mentioned was fun. This was evident from the comment Mike made soon after he got into the car: ‘Even 10-15 minutes after getting in, I was saying, did we just see that or was it a dream because that seems like something you only see on Shark Week.’ Frank nodded in consensus, “We both, said that might have been the coolest thing we’ve ever seen.”
