Orlando Sentinel photographer Jacob Langston was out in the waters of New Smyrna Beach, Florida, making a video of a surfer when another surfer exclaimed, "Dude! Did you see that?!"
Carefully watch the back area in between the two surfers, and you will see the shark jumping over a surfer.

Surfer man,
Yuo sure get around......
LOL
How was the hot sauce?
I’ll bet Sponge Bob Square Pants had “Happy Days” on TV recently.
Gnarly, dude.
Shark jumps the surfer
Surfers are friends, not food..repeat
(Mmmm, I remember Bob. He tasted like peanuts)
A new take on the term - jumped the shark
The shark will now suffer a sharp decline in popularity, produce some bad spin-offs, be cancelled, and drift into popular folklore.
Jumped BY a shark.
New Smyrna Beach is the shark attack capital of the world, according to a database called the International Shark Attack File. http://www.usatoday.com/travel/news/2008-04-18-shark-beaches-forbes_N.htm
The shark will now suffer a sharp decline in popularity, produce some bad spin-offs, be cancelled, and drift into popular folklore.I know that the show went downhill after that but amazingly it stayed on the air for 7 more years, as opposed to 5 years before Fonzi made his shark-jump.
My husband and I go to NSB at least 2 times a month to surf ski and Kayak. This really does happen often. Well, not jumping up like that, but swimming along with you as you surf or kayak out there. It is a little creepy, but we are in there world and should respect it. I also see porpoise and manatee, and they do like to play with you. It is beautiful! Gives prespective in life.
bet his mother said: “now junior! how many times do I have to tell you - don’t play with your food!”
LOL! Nice...
The International Shark Attack File is a compilation of all known shark attacks that is administered by the the American Elasmobranch Society and the Florida Museum of Natural History. The American Elasmobranch Society is a professional organization comprised of international workers studying sharks, skates and rays. More than 5,000 individual investigations are currently housed in the File, covering the period from mid-1500's to present. Many of the data in the File originate from the voluntary submissions of numerous cooperating scientists who serve worldwide as regional observers. Regional observers forward investigations of attacks in their areas for integration into the File. Data submitted to the File is screened, coded and computerized. Hard copy documentation, including original notes, press clippings, photographs, audio/video tapes, and medical/autopsy reports, is permanently archived. The File is utilized by biological researchers and research physicians; access to the data is granted only after careful screening on a case-by-case basis. Direct access by the press and general public is strictly forbidden since much sensitive information is considered privileged. Requests for summary information and non-privileged data are made to the File's director.The International Shark Attack FileATTENTION: Please note that due to an overwhelming influx of e-mails, letters, and phone calls, Mr. Burgess is at present unable to respond to such communications in a timely manner. Please understand that every effort to reply to these messages will be made, but that such a reply may be delayed. We greatly appreciate your interest in the International Shark Attack File and we thank you for your patience.
Why don't they just PUBLISH the summary information?
This is how badly Obozo has screwed up things...
Next time you go to the beach, take your binoculars and watch the waves crest. All sorts of large creatures feeding in those waves.
Bump
A shark named Fonzie.
