A U.S. Marine is captured on video reeling in an enormous tiger shark off the coast of North Carolina.
And before the animal rights folks have a conniption, the Marine, David Schmidt, was with a group of researchers from the Apex Predators Program, which catches and tags sharks for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, according to Fox News.
