On Sunday, he instructed newshounds the bull shark offered fairly the shrink back:
“He changed into solid. He kicked my butt. It changed into if truth be told silly. We’re sitting there and we had been catching tunas. After which suddenly this bull shark comes out of nowhere and appropriate slams notion to be one of our tuna. And we’re zigzag up on this large, outmoded bull shark and we enjoy gotta wrestle him. It changed into kind of relaxing. It changed into a appropriate time. We let him proceed safe and sound. So it changed into nothing corrupt with it.”
