This goofball over here is Erick Jacobs, a Massachusetts native who recently jumped into the ocean and “rode” a shark. It was a basking shark that isn’t supposed to be a danger to humans, but still, it’s a freaking shark. I think you’ll greatly enjoy these television interviews that Jacobs did as they are full of Bostplotation goodness. This really is the perfect story for the day after The Town premiered on HBO. “I”m puttin’ this whole shahk in my reahview.”

The basking shahk is no dangah. No one denies this.
