VIDEO: A groper so big that it rammed a fisherman’s boat and almost CAPSIZED IT (Watch)

Believe it or not, commercial fishermen have one of the most dangerous jobs in the world. These two men were only fishing for fun, but they got a small taste of what commercial fishermen can have to watch out for when a giant groper rammed their boat and almost capsized it.

Brad Hinks and his friend were fishing in shallow water near Darwin when they spotted the massive Queensland groper.

The fish, which can grown to at least 2.7 metres and more than 400kg, was so large that its scaly back broke the surface of the water.

… As it frantically headed for deeper water, the groper’s tail crashed into the side of the dingy causing it to nearly capsize.

The fish managed to churned up dirt from the shallow water as it high-tailed it away from the fisherman.

The fish was probably scared and trying to get away. But that big guy could have done a lot of damage in the process! These two got lucky for sure.
