Nope, just a sunfish, but Michael Bergin of Malden, Massachusetts, didn't know that when he and his friend Jason Foster first spotted it.
According to the Boston Globe, the pair were out in Boston Harbor on Foster's boat last week when they spotted the giant sea creature. Bergin captured the entire ordeal on video, narrating in an expletive-filled rant in a thick Boston accent as his friend Foster attempted to reel it in.
"I don't know what this, but Jay says it's a (expletive) big sea turtle," Bergin says in the video. He then quickly corrects himself, saying, "It's a baby (expletive) whale, man!"
Bergin posted the videos to his Facebook page, and they've gone viral, with hundreds of thousands of views.
No word yet on what happened to the sunfish.

(54,256 posts)The ocean sunfish or common mola, Mola mola, is the heaviest known bony fish in the world. It has an average adult weight between 247 and 1,000 kg (5452,205 lb). The species is native to tropical and temperate waters around the globe. It resembles a fish head with a tail, and its main body is flattened laterally. Sunfish can be as tall as they are long when their dorsal and ventral fins are extended.
Sunfish live on a diet consisting mainly of jellyfish, but because this diet is nutritionally poor, they consume large amounts to develop and maintain their great bulk. Females of the species can produce more eggs than any other known vertebrate,[1] up to 300,000,000 at a time.[2] Sunfish fry resemble miniature pufferfish, with large pectoral fins, a tail fin, and body spines uncharacteristic of adult sunfish.

They are HUGE though; this video doesn't give you a lot of perspective. They are generally around four feet long, and almost that in diameter.
