A Texas man spotted a massive hammerhead shark in the waters of a Texas beach.

Jason Schilling was soaking up the sun at San Luis Pass Beach, on Galveston Island’s West End, when he saw the creature swimming in a shallow area close to the shoreline. 

He posted a video of the sighting on TikTok on Wednesday, where the shark’s dorsal fin is seen protruding in the currents of the Gulf Stream, alarmingly close to where he was standing.

In the clip, which garnered 3.1 million views, he said, “Dude, look at that frickin’ thing. What the hell? This thing came up right to the land. That’s crazy. I didn’t know they go that shallow.”

He captioned the post with “This was unexpected lol Will you still go swimming here?”

Over 2,000 TikTok users commented, with some explaining the sighting was common.

“It’s literally the San Luis Pass… what do you think is passing???” said @aidenweaver55.

“You don’t swim in SL pass. Every Texan knows this,” added @morgxnshiflet.
