Here's more proof that Von Miller is the NFL's Steve Irwin ... landing a HUGE hammerhead shark after a wild tussle with the beast of the deep!

It all went down off the shores of Miami Beach ... where the Denver Broncos star and his bros set sail on a sport fishing trip, 'cause why the hell not?

The crew caught a bunch of cool fishies ... but none could compare to their 9-AND-A-HALF-FOOT shark which, according to the boat captain, was the biggest hammerhead he's seen all season.

FYI, the guys made sure to throw it back in the water after bro'in out on their find.

Remember -- this is a dude that wrastled a live gator just a couple months back ... and we got a feeling he's only gonna keep upping the ante.

10:40 AM PT -- Arnold's people just told us the following ... the procedure was "to replace a pulmonic valve that was originally replaced due to a congenital heart defect in 1997. That 1997 replacement valve was never meant to be permanent and has outlived its life expectancy, so he chose to replace it yesterday through a less-invasive catheter valve replacement. During that procedure, an open-heart surgery team was prepared ... in case the catheter procedure was unable to be performed."

The rep says Arnold's recovering from surgery and is in stable condition. His first words after waking up: "I'm back." Naturally.

Arnold Schwarzenegger has undergone emergency open-heart surgery ... TMZ has learned.

Sources connected to Arnold tell TMZ, the 70-year-old Schwarzenegger went to Cedars-Sinai Thursday for a catheter valve replacement. We're told the surgery is somewhat experimental and he developed complications.

Doctors were prepared in case the catheter valve replacement failed ... and quickly decided Arnold needed emergency open-heart surgery, which we're told lasted several hours.

This is not the first time Arnold has gone under the knife for heart surgery. He had an aortic valve replaced in 1997. At the time doctors didn't feel the procedure was urgently needed, but Arnold decided to do it while he was still young. He also said at the time the condition was congenital and had nothing to do with steroids.

As for his condition ... we're told he's stable.

Fabolous flew into such a rage at Emily B, the mother of his 2 kids, that he punched her 7 times and also threatened to shoot her, as well as her family members ... according to law enforcement sources.

TMZ broke the story ... Fabolous surrendered to police Wednesday night and was booked for aggravated assault and terroristic threats. Emily told police things have been heated with the rapper since early March, when they had an argument in L.A.

She claimed he later sent her a text saying he wanted to hit her in the head with a baseball bat, and would kill her ... but he "did not want to go out like that." Emily claims instead ... Fabolous repeatedly punched her in the face, and knocked out her 2 front teeth.

Emily says she feared for her life, and remembered Fabolous has 2 handguns in their home in Englewood, NJ -- so, she called her father to remove them before Fab got home. She told cops ... Fabolous was infuriated when he arrived at the house to find her father and brother there, and went to look for his guns.

She claims he stormed out of the house, and told her and family "he had a bullet for them."

Buffalo Bills receiver Zay Jones says he's thankful to see his 23rd birthday ... breaking his silence after his naked, bloody arrest last week.

We broke the story ... Jones was arrested for felony vandalism after a bizarre, nude altercation with his brother at an L.A. apartment. We're told Cayleb -- a Minnesota Vikings player -- was fighting to keep him from jumping out of a hole he kicked out a 30th floor window.

Zay is finally speaking out for the first time since the incident -- on his 23rd birthday -- saying "thankful to be alive. thankful for another year. more life."

There has been an outpour of support for Jones since the arrest -- from Bills coach Sean McDermott to Johnny Manziel.

Zay won't face criminal charges from the incident after his family agreed to cover the cost for repairs ... but the league is still investigating.

6:19 AM PT -- We've learned the father of the student who made the threat later met with police and turned over a black handgun, a magazine, 6 bullets and an airsoft pistol.

A student at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School made threats with a gun and ammunition against another student, and parents want to know if more danger lurks on campus ... yet the school has gone radio silent.

A student at the school posted these ominous pics with a clear target ... a fellow student he accused of stealing his Gucci sandals. The student in question posted this ominous warning, "Catch me out here n****," along with, "Anyone know josh at Stoneman Douglas he's light skin where's Gucci glasses and jeans that look like a 4 year old drew on em hmu."

Cops came to the school last week and arrested the student for making criminal threats. He told cops the bullets were his dad's and the gun was real ... it was a BB gun. And there's this ... according to the police report, his Fortnite gamer tag name is NickCruz ... the same name as the notorious shooter.

The parent of the student who was targeted went to the school to find out if the student who was arrested would be back on campus. According to the parent's lawyer, Bradford Cohen, the school refuses to give an answer, which has freaked out a number of students and parents.

Cohen tells TMZ this is not about suing the school ... it's purely about safety.

5:02 PM PT -- Corey's rep tells us while initial tests seem to be clear, they're still waiting on final results for long-term tests like HIV and certain poisons.

Corey Feldman has gotten a clean bill of health after saying he was stabbed with what he believes to be a syringe or a knife.

Corey's bodyguard, Jeff V. -- who was with the actor at the time of the attack -- tells us that tests the hospital ran after Corey came in claiming he'd been stabbed Tuesday night have come back clean and clear of any hard drugs or infectious diseases.

We're told doctors drew blood from Corey and even took a urine sample -- all came back negative. Law enforcement sources also tell us doctors didn't find anything unusual from the scratch around Corey's abdomen. Corey told us he felt a sharp object slightly penetrate his skin, drawing a tiny bit of blood.

We're told doctors didn't find any evidence of a puncture from a needle or blade.

It may take a while to get to the bottom of things .... our sources say police weren't able to track down any surveillance video of the incident ... and swabs they've taken from Corey's car for potential DNA have yielded zero leads.

Heavyweight champ Deontay Wilder says most boxers' worst fear is his fantasy ... telling the world he desperately wants to KILL A MAN IN THE RING before his career is over.

Wilder sat down with Charlamagne Tha God & Angela Yee (DJ Envy probably already walked out of the interview) on "The Breakfast Club," when he made the incredibly frightening statement.

"I want a body on my record. I want one. I really do."

Ummm, yeah. If any of you think he's joking, Wilder actually goes on to give reasons why he feels this way, saying he's not in his right mind when he's in the ring under his "Bronze Bomber" persona.

"That's the Bronze Bomber. He want one. When I'm the Bronze Bomber I don't care. I want that on my record."

In case you were wondering, it DOES happen, and most fighters say it haunts them their entire life. But, Wilder says only part of his split personality would feel remorse, and even then it's part of the game.

"Deontay would feel bad, but we signed up for that."

Yikes. You sure you want that, Anthony Joshua?

The star of "Welcome to Sweetie Pie's" has repeatedly shown he's a violent freak of nature ... so claims his ex-gf Jennifer Williams, who says she's got a witness who can prove it.

Sources close to the 'Basketball Wives' star tell TMZ ... Jennifer's legal team has added Horace Hodges to her witness list in her quest to get a permanent restraining order against James "Tim" Norman. Remember, she already got a temporary order against Tim after claiming he's violent and threatening. He calls BS.

Jennifer's witness -- a former pastry chef who worked with Tim -- has allegedly come face-to-face with Tim's violent ways. He sued Tim back in June of 2017 ... claiming Tim damaged his left eye after punching him with his fist.

Someone told Kanye West and his fam it's all happening at the zoo for Spring Break '18 -- and it looks like that someone was right.

'Ye and Kim Kardashian took Saint and North for a VIP experience Thursday at the San Diego Zoo. Based on his grin, we'd say Dad had just as much fun as the kids getting a behind-the-scenes tour with the penguins, elephants and hippos.

Low key ... this is the Wests' cutest family outing we've seen in a long time. Ya gotta see which animal put the biggest smile on North's face.

Paris Hilton insists when she says "I do" to Chris Zylka it's gonna be forever, but just in case ... they have a prenup.

We got Paris and Chris Thursday at LAX, and we asked them to settle it once and for all ... prenup or no prenup. After all, Paris' parents were split on whether she should get one.

Chris starts out ... something about gentlemen who marry rich ladies should not be askin' for a prenup. That's what you call a truism. But then he spills the truth.

Zendaya can juggle 2 Spider-Men at once, and proved it when she and Tom Holland hooked up with a Spidey statue Thursday outside an L.A. comic book store.

Holland, who plays Spidey in "Spider-Man: Homecoming," and Z, who plays his classmate, MJ ... couldn't pass up the perfect photo op. The statue's always perched outside Golden Apple Comics, but Tom looked like this was his first time seeing it.

Filming on the "Spider-Man: Homecoming" sequel was just announced, so it's possible the co-stars were just taking a research break. Tom's also busy promoting "Avengers: Infinity War."

Zendaya and Tom have strongly denied they're an item, which is too bad. In their matching Chuck Taylors, they make a pretty dynamic duo. Sorry, Batman & Robin.

Master P's kid Mercy says he isn't scared of ANY young baller in his age range ... even the much hyped LeBron James Jr., telling TMZ Sports he thinks he could take LBJJR down.

We got P, Mercy and star high-school hooper Hercy out in L.A. ... and talked to the kids about their basketball skills 'cause both of them are super highly ranked for their age range.

Hercy told us he's looking at colleges, with big schools like USC already offering him.

Mercy seemed to have his sights set on his peers, saying he isn't scared of anyone in his age (he's 12) or even older, including LeBron's son.

"I'm not gonna put myself under anyone else, but he's good, I watch him."

Of course, we had to (full-court) press him ... and of course, he had to keep it real, saying he thinks he can handle Bronny -- an Internet legend -- if it ever came down to it.

We got videos of both of the kids, and while we'd never pit middle school athletes against each other, we gotta ask the question ... if you're picking up for your squad, who you got?

Ariana Grande's sexy reggae-pop tune featuring Nicki Minaj is a blatant rip-off of another song, just with their vocals added in ... according to a new suit.

Texan man Christopher R. O'Connor claims "Side To Side" -- Grande's smash hit from her 2016 "Dangerous Woman" album -- is essentially his track called "J5 (T6)" ... but someone from UMG Recordings discovered it and got Ariana and Nicki to copy it.

O'Connor tells us he reached out to UMG about the alleged copyright violation and was instructed to send in a demo ... but the company didn't address his accusation of song stealing.

Here's "J5 (T6)" -- which O'Connor claims was written before "Side To Side." Have a listen and decide for yourself if there's a resemblance.

O'Connor also tells us he believes UMG has found some more of his songs online and used them to produce other copies ... by artists like Mike Shinoda and Taylor Swift.

He's suing UMG -- not Grande or Minaj -- asking for royalties from "Side To Side" (which currently has over a billion views on YouTube) and a song-writing credit.

Ray J doesn't know the first thing about changing diapers but says that's not gonna stop him from being a hands-on dad when his baby girl arrives, especially since he's not planning on having any help.

We got Ray J and his wife, Princess Love, outside SiriusXM Studios Thursday in Midtown Manhattan, where he let the cat out of the bag and confirmed ... they're having a girl.

He's still got some time to brush up on diaper duty training since the baby's not due til summer. He also might want to read up on secondhand smoke.

It's Good Friday and to celebrate the special day we're gifting you with some then and now photos of the iconic cast from the holy trinity of 'Friday' movies. Check out what Deebo, Ezal, Mrs. Parker, Debbie, Baby D and the rest of the epic cast of characters look like now!
