If you were settled in with a bowl of popcorn every night to watch Shark Week, then this is also a treat for your eyes.

A terrifying treat.

A large school of sharks got an A in scaring the bejesus out of onlookers on an oil rig.

Video captured hundreds of sharks swimming just below the surface of the water. SEE IT HERE.

'There's a big one dude,' the person shooting the video says. He watches from the side of the rig as sharks swim purposefully through the water, hundreds of them on a hunt.

One woman wrote to the oil rig worker on Facebook: 'Thank God y'all didn't fall.' Another commenter noted that this hunt may seem jaw-dropping, but it's an annual event and 'an amazing sight to see.'
