A man at Oyster Plank Park in Washington state was filmed catching a shark with his bare hands and the video is now going viral.

The video shows a man, identified as Alex Winn, standing on the dock near the water as he closely follows a shark swimming in the water below. Surrounded by a group of people shouting, Winn jumps in the water and grabs the small shark with his bare hands.
