Watch: Fisherman Gets Pulled Into A Lake By Huge Fish

Lorant Szabo had been fishing at the lake since his childhood but he did not see what adventure awaited him on a fine June day.

It seems like we've finally got our hands on a rendition of the classic Moby-Dick story in Hungary. But it's a real incident that took place in Somogy County. A video released on YouTube shows a man named Lorant Szabo who went fishing at Lake Harsasberki one fine day in June. Only, it did not turn out to be very fine for him. We see him waiting with his fishing rod when a fish pulls at it. He jumps and tries to pull it up to the banks. But ultimately, he himself falls into the lake. Mr Szabo has been fishing at the lake since his childhood. However, as he sat waiting for a good catch this day, a huge catfish tugged at the bait. Within moments, Mr Szabo lost control of his fishing line and the cord somehow cut under the threads and he could no more pull the brakes. That's how he was pulled by the lurching fish into the water. The incident got videotaped and was previously released by Mr Szabo that month. It took no time to go viral over the Internet. In the caption to the video on his own channel, Mr Szabo wrote that he struggled for an hour to find his fishing rod in that lake.  Now, the latest one quotes Mr Szabo's explanation, "The line got stuck, so the huge fish pulled me into the water. Later managed to catch, it was 66kg." Indeed, that was a good catch, Mr Szabo.
