Giant Ocean Sunfish
 
This video is worth a look. I've seen them from above many times but from under water you really get a sense for what they are like. What a huge fish in this case. Very interesting.

Thing is massive, you get a good idea of its size at the end when the dive is vertical next to it

Fished a charter years ago and one swam under the ship while we were anchored. It swam under the boat and emerged right under me. I was shocked when I aw the size, and everyone got thrill seeing such a gentle giant of the ocean!

Finally got to witness one of these totally breaching the water early Thursday morning while fishing for funny fish. I've always heard they did it, but never saw it with my own eyes until then. Saw the whole breach and it was about 150 yards away. Pretty awesome.

Saw them breach in cc canal last year. Amazing. Friends said one came by Bell road this afternoon. Once saw one in Pleasure Bay
in southie. Not breaching but very impressive.
