This blue marlin probably had other plans. Instead of hopping into the boat and surrendering to its fate, it jumps into the air and almost spears a man on the fishing boat who is on a fishing excursion in the Gulf of Mexico.

The footage shows how lucky the man was. The video attracted a lot of attention on TikTok, reaching almost 140 million views within three days.

Both the fish and the man escaped with a scare.

This young man proves that fishing can be done differently.

He lures the fish with a kind of straw and pulls them directly out of the water with his hands - probably the safer option compared to spearfishing.
