Life is full of surprises, which are etched in our memories forever. Some of these are, however, unpleasant experiences which leave people for a long time. One such strange incident happened in Thailand when a spikey Anabas fish jumped out of the water and into the throat of an angler.
As it tried to escape through his nose, the freshwater fish got lodged between the unlucky angler's throat and nasal cavity, according to New York Post. The incident took place on May 22 in Phatthalung province, the report further said.
Describing the incident in detail, the Post further said that the fisherman's oxygen supply was cut off and he clutched at his throat when the 5-inch intruder made its way down into his windpipe.
The man was rushed to Phatthalung Provincial Hospital, where doctors were puzzled to see his condition. The man told doctors that he had been spike-fishing with a harpoon underwater just before the bizarre incident.
