CABO SAN LUCAS, Mexico -- Two fishermen in Northwestern Mexico have caught one of the longest great white sharks ever recorded.
The shark weighed more than 2,000 pounds and was nearly 20 feet long. The fishermen say they were fishing in the Sea of Cortez when they caught the shark in their net. They didn't know they had the giant fish in their net until they pulled it onto deck. Luckily, for the fisherman, the shark was already dead when they brought it on board.
The huge shark added so much weight to the boat that another fishing boat had to pull it in. Once they got the shark to shore it took 50 people to help the fishermen drag the dead shark onto the docks.
