Man rescues great white shark after it gets caught in fishing line at California beach

Even sharks need a helping hand sometimes.

Kelly Bailey filmed the incident, Fox 5 San Diego reports. According to her, no one could tell that the fish was actually a great white shark until it was pulled close to the beach. "I was walking over towards the Jetty where my son and his cousins were exploring and I noticed a fishing line pulling from far out in the water," Bailey told the news outlet. "I then saw a man reeling in a large marine reel and another man running towards the water with a spear. After the man was fighting to reel in what we all thought was a sport fish, was told by the other man holding the spear that it was in fact a shark."
