Netizens react hilariously as a video of a shark in a boat goes viral—“What would you do in this situation?”

Recently a viral video has come to the surface that shows a shark accidentally crash-landing onto a boat filled with unsuspecting humans. If you’ve ever wondered what happens when a 15-foot shark lands on a boat, the answer is simple: absolute chaos. The shark must've hit the deck with the force of a wet mattress dropped from a third-story window, we can only guess.

The creature seemed just as confused as we were. It lay there, awkwardly sprawled across the deck, looking like it was trying to figure out how it ended up in this bizarre situation.

Naturally, this caught the attention of the netizens, who had a field day debating the aftermath and repercussions of the event. Can you imagine if you were in the same situation? We would probably freak out and pass out in a fit of hysteria.

Netizens burst into laughter as shark crash-lands onto a boat

Fans were left debating what they could have done to help the poor creature now that it had landed on the strip. One fan came up with a rather unique solution to the problem:

"Bite it. Establish dominance." joked one user (@CptAncapistan) to the amusement of all of the internet community.

When life gives you a shark on your deck, bite it first and ask questions later—because nothing establishes dominance like a human with worse table manners than a sea monster. Thanks for the suggestion, buddy!

While some wondered if the same situation played out with a different gender, others were empathetic toward the situation and came with solutions of their own.

"This would go a lot differently if this happened to a group of all females", wondered one fan (@realizetruth889), rather amusingly.

"Pet the shark", suggested another (@EdoishereBish)

Can you imagine having a shark as a pet? Me neither. But hey, we wouldn't have to worry about burglars again. Plus, they might agree to arrange a meet-up with Aquaman for us!

Of course, with the internet being a treasure trove of hypothesis and suggestions, people were quick to jump on the bandwagon and each of them came up with theories of their own as well to help the poor creature. These suggestions ranged from the somewhat reasonable to the frankly outrageous, and we are all the better for it.

"Get going top speed then do sharp slaloms til it flies over the side like drunk people always do.", joked one user (@Tedworld4)

"I would ask him to relax and explain calmly that he can not stay here," quipped another (@v4l4g)

Ah, yes, the diplomats. Of course, sharks are famously docile creatures, and they would jump at the chance to negotiate like it's a UN Peace Conference. A bit of optimism doesn't hurt.

Another fan came up with a hilarious suggestion that left the netizens in a bout of laughter.

Letting the shark drive seems like a good idea on paper until the next thing we know, we're headed straight for the Bermuda Triangle! But hey, at least there's no traffic around, so I can drown my sorrows in the Bermuda Triangle all at once.

There are always subject matter experts on the internet who have the know-how and have somehow faced the exact same curveball that life has thrown at you. Their opinions are invaluable, and these people must be protected at all costs!

"I watched a documentary on dealing with this sort of thing many years ago. Put a scuba tank in his mouth then shoot the tank. Problem solved.", suggested one fan (@EAMckinstry), to the utter amusement of the rest of the online community.

The incident had the whole internet community in splits and that is one of the best ways to kickstart the week! We're sure it would've been a once-in-a-lifetime enthralling experience for the guys on the boat and they'd likely never forget this for the rest of their lives. Because, after all, you can spend your whole life on the water, but you’ll never expect to have a shark land on your boat. And that, my friends, is the real definition of a “catch.”
