Recently surfaced footage shows a shark being caught on the coast of Fife in east Scotland in a fishing crew's ropes.

Captured on October 18, 2018, one fisherman on the boat is seen wrangling the beast while it writhes half-submerged.

One of the crew told local media: "We were pulling up the pots and when we got to the keel end rope the gear suddenly became heavy.

“We must have just caught the shark.

“We pulled in the rope and discovered it was tangled around the shark’s tail.

“The shark was very much alive, and not impressed.

“It must have been 7ft or 8ft long and it tried to get a bite at us.

“We pulled it up to the side of the boat, lifted its tail and cut the rope. It quickly swam off.”
