CHATHAM – The Atlantic White Shark Conservancy has posted another dramatic video of a breaching great white shark.

This time it was taken aboard a boat that was fishing on Stone Horse Shoal just southeast of Monomoy Island.

In the video, a person can be seen trying to reel in a striped bass with another person assisting when the shark leaps out of the water just feet from the boat.

Needless to say, everyone on board was quite surprised, with one person yelling out an expletive.

CAUTION: EXPLETIVE LANGUAGE CONTAINED IN VIDEO

Last week, the Conservancy tweeted out a video in which a shark can be seen leaping at Dr. Grek Skomal as he was standing on a boat platform attempting to tag the great white.
