His latest stunt was catching a marlin with a rod and real....off a surf board!!!

how did they recorded him doing that?

It took 11 months of planning and attempts. They had a boat in the area chumming bait to keep the Marlin near the surface and in the right area and then a diver in the water. In fact that was one of the questions the interviewer asked!

would it be funier if the marlin decided to look up towords the helicopter? He is just a stunt show off I realy don't like these kind of shows there is no respect towords that beutiful creature.

Sooner or later he will have a close encounter with a 3ft bill from one of those huge fish and than he will go back to rod and reel, but still to say the least it is amusing to watch and stupid to perform.

He's got to be careful of his spear.... do you remember that aussie guy who got killed by the sting ray? Just imagine a fish that big.... a hundred times the force of a stingray!
