'People thought they were fixing to get eaten alive or something!'

ORANGE BEACH, Ala. - Boaters in Alabama got quite the surprise when they found themselves surrounded by a school of hammerhead sharks.

"All of a sudden we started hearing people say shark, shark, and then everybody started getting on the boat. People thought they were fixing to get eaten alive or something," said Paul Hubble. "We got the kids, and everybody on the boat, I walked around the boat and noticed they were hammerheads. You could tell they were feeding on something and doing their thing. Everybody was climbing all over boats and stuff. It was very dramatic to see for sure in probably like two foot of water, if that," Hubble told reporters.
