JT'S SHARK JAWS
$12,500 This jaw of a Great White is 23" wide with 2 1/2" teeth. It was accidentally caught in a fisherman's net and as you know a shark can not live if it is not constantly moving . When the fisherman were dragging for fish they noticed that they could not bring in the net which was very odd because their drag net winch was rated to 4000lbs. So they stopped the boat to bring in the net and to their surprise they had a HUGE Great White shark ! This shark was 20 + ft. long with 2 1/2" teeth and a near 2 ft by 2 ft jaw. Wow! When I am diving in the murky water I always have in the back of my mind what kind of damage can a shark do to me! Well it is obvious by the picture it could cut me clean in half !
