Quint and Brody try to bring up the cage a couple of times and fail. They eventually do bring it up and see it is destroyed and that there is no Hooper. Why Hooper didn't swim back to the ship is beyond me.
Now comes the cheesiest part. The shark jumps halfway onto the stern of the ship partially sinking it. I groan now, but I remember seeing it for the first time and thinking I would never get on a boat ever ever ever.
Quint falls and slides into the shark's mouth. The shark thrashes him around, blood spews everywhere and Quint is toast. One thing I didn't notice is that at one point Quint tries to grab onto a shelf to pull himself up. But the pesky scuba tank hits his fingers and causes him to let go and fall victim to the shark. That scuba tank killed more than one character in this film.
