2018-04-25 5 Dailymotion

YouTuber Viva Frei feeds by hand the giant tarpon of a marina in Florida in this super fun, first-person feature video in which he nearly (sort of) loses an arm.<br /><br />The friendly Canadian also enlists the help of some locals to film his experience in slow motion on an iPhone.<br /><br />In the video, Viva Frei is filmed waiting for the circling tarpon fish to jump up for their dinner.<br /><br />A couple of the fish jump out of the water - huge open mouths at the ready - and try to grab the bait. Viva Frei's arm almost disappears with it. <br /><br />"Daddy, what bit you there?" asks one of his children, pointing at his bloodied arms when he gets back to his family after feeding the tarpon.<br /><br />In the end, Viva Frei not only got bitten by the giant tarpon but also a pelican that was lingering nearby, he explains. <br /><br />"It was an epic experience," he says.<br /><br />The video was filmed at Robbie's Marina, which sustained extensive damage during 2017's Hurricane Irma.
