A fisherman from Victoria, Australia, climbed inside the shark he had captured, poked an arm through its lifeless gills, and staged this incredible shot for posterity. From Perth Now:
“An American couple have turned up at the Metung Hotel to see this photo and their immediate response from the wife was ‘Did he survive!?’.” The fisherman was standing right behind her at the time. Presumably, his answer was “yes”.
First reported by 3AW, a radio station in Australia, the fisherman isn’t named. But show host Ross Stevenson declared it their “photo of the year” on the spot. [via Gawker]
