Fisherman catches huge sea monster and casually drives it into town

A FISHERMAN in China has created a bit of a scene by transporting a dead 2-tonne whale shark on the back of his small truck.

The crazy incident emerged in a photo earlier today as the fishing pro drives nonchalantly through town with the five-metre long beast on the back of his vehicle.

People in the street stand and stare in disbelief with the giant tail drooping down in front of the driver's window.
And it would sure come as a shock to most drivers to see a huge whale coming towards them up the high street.
The whale was apparently caught in Yangzhi county, Fujian and then loaded the monster on to his van.

But what is most concerning is how he did it.
Either a few of his mates chipped in to help show off the trophy catch or the fishermen knows someone in the crane business.
It's even surprising to see the tiny truck still operating with the 4,400+lb whale on top of it.
So what's the catch?
