RIP Bruce, "He died with fish as friends, not food."

If you actually read the article and not just the headline then you'll realise that this happened in Mexico.

[–]boysetsfrog 1 point2 points ago

Meanwhile in Australia... a newspaper printed this article

[–]SpiderDan1990 -1 points0 points ago

This article could be printed in any newspaper worldwide, the incident would still have happened in Mexico :)

The man is Australian though. "Meanwhile in Australia" is just part of the joke.

[–]SpiderDan1990 -1 points0 points ago

but it can't be part of the joke if it didn't happen in Australia. Fair enough had you put, Meanwhile, An Australian........ then I couldn't complain!

My dad told a story of how in his younger days he and some mates were watching some fishermen netting a local bay one time (while having a beer or two) when a spotter noticed a marlin in the bay and was about to call for them to ditch the nets (the marlin would destroy them anyway), when dad + mates, full of dutch courage, decided to belay the order, grabbed their fins (they'd been spear fishing) and jumped in to wrestle it out.

Never really believed him until I saw the photo of the four of them on the sand, black marlin stretched across between them, and the dirty great bruise coming up on one guys chest where said fishy's tail had given him a thump he'd instinctively wrapped himself around, slowing it down enough for the other three to grab hold and wrestle the thing into shore.

Crazy bastards, the lot of 'em

and yes, Australians, in Australia.
