Five-Meter Fish Caught in Chile Raises Concerns of Imminent Danger

A five-meter-long fish has been caught in Chile, which according to legend, is considered a harbinger of cataclysms, reports LADBible.

Local residents are now joking that it's time to build an ark and brace for tsunamis triggered by earthquakes. Fishermen from the city of Arica in Chile caught this giant fish, astonishing onlookers who began filming the rare catch.

While some were studying the marine life, others were quick to warn that catching such a fish is a bad omen according to local lore. It is believed to signal cataclysms (abrupt destructive turns in nature affecting society) and the end of calm and peaceful life on Earth. However, experts rushed to reassure the public: “This fish lives deep in the ocean. It has surfaced due to the movement of tectonic plates,” noted one expert.

Despite the reassurances, local authorities announced that an investigation will be conducted to determine why the fish had risen from a depth of 1,000 meters.
