A Cuban individual captured on video the moment fishermen encountered a shark beneath a pier at Black Point, located in the southern part of Miami-Dade. The clip quickly gained traction on TikTok due to the amusing reactions it elicited.
Shared by user @travieso037, the video shows a massive fish swimming near the pier's pilings, with voices in the background claiming it's a "giant great white shark." However, the comments section was rife with corrections and jokes from other users.
One user humorously remarked, "Those are the ones that bite and eat people," while another mocked, "First, he knows nothing about sharks, and second, it's not called a 'tolete,' it's a shark."
Several users pointed out that the fish was likely not a great white shark, as the fishermen claimed. Instead, they speculated it was a bull shark, a species known for its ability to swim in both saltwater and freshwater. "They need to watch Animal Planet," someone quipped jokingly.
The video has garnered thousands of views, highlighting how, despite the shock of seeing such a large shark at a pier frequented by fishermen and families, what truly captivated the audience were the humorous exchanges and debates about the shark's true species.
