Just seen a trailer on Discovery Channel where a bloke dives out of a helicopter onto a Marlin and wrestles it!!

There is catchphrase about "Rods are for wimps!" Anyone else see that? Is it real?

I've just watched it Dave after bob said it was on facetube. I like some of the comments especially where one bloke said 'he didn't jump out of a helicopter, he jumped from a surfboard onto it'.........like that makes it any easier.

If it's real, then hats off! If it's not real, it's well done. Either way a good clip.

This has been about for quite a while. I think it was established that the fish was one that just been released, as it seemed very sluggish

Its a guy from New Zealand called Matt Watson. He's done loads of crazy stuff, the shows were on Quest for a while. I think its all for real.
