Description

Off the coast of Australia, a crew of experienced fishermen witnessed something they still can't fully explain. These were men who had spent their entire lives on the water—men who had seen great whites, tiger sharks, and storms that would break most people. Nothing had ever made them turn back. Until this. What surfaced beside their boat that day was far larger than any shark that's supposed to exist in the modern ocean. They measured it against the length of their own vessel. And when they finally made it back to shore, several of them made a decision that shocked everyone who knew them: they would never go back out to sea. Was it a misidentification? A trick of the light? Or is there something still swimming in the deep waters off Australia that science says went extinct millions of years ago?"
