This is a modern phrase. There was a television show that was popular. After sometime they ran out of ideas to keep the viewership of the programme. Try something very adventurous-like jumping a shark. This idea was implemented. So what happened? Nothing. When ratings go down they go down. But a phrase is created. Some thing outrageous in the name of creativity is called jumping the shark. (This post is not an invitation to get hooked to television, serials, shows and all that.)
So there were surfers in the sea. A shark decided to return the favour. Rather then surfer jumping over the shark the shark decided to jump over the surfer. Here is the link. A commenter says that he is shark expert and it is all real. Why not?
