According to the fishermen, the shark jumped out of the water and onto the boat, where it got jammed between the railing and the boat. It spent a few moments thrashing around and biting at the railing, then eventually wiggled free.

You can hear the sound of panic coming from the voices of the men on board as they try to think of the best way to safely get the shark off the boat. According to Fox 8, the incident occurred off the coast of Long Island.
