Hey! I was wadin’ nekkid in the Amazon...and that’s the critter what swum up m’ wa-zoo when I was a’ peein’.

Last night late, I watched one of his shows on this very subject. There is only one documented case, and he talks to the doctor, shows them removing it, reunites the fish in formaldahyde with the victim. Painful to watch.

I agree. Shooting it after you bring it aboard would be contraindicated.

Turning them loose is contrary to my upbringing. Eat it or stuff it:)

Oh dear, hope hubby doesn’t see this...he has a strange attraction to giant raging water creature B horror movies. I watched a bit of the giant croc one...and a teeny teeny bit of the enormous shark one...

wait...Tiffany?! As in 80’s remix of I Think We’re Alone Now? That Tiffany? She still hasn’t found a last name? LOL

I gotta admit, that “megashark” movie does intrigue me with its obvious horribleness.

I’ve never even heard of “Tiffany.” Was this person famous?

She was a singer in the late 80’s. She re-did the Tommy James and the Shondells song...was all the rage among the 9-12 yr old girl set at that time...I should know...I was part of that demographic... LOL

I’ve got a 1956 edition of a Naval Institute survival book that claims of other reported incidents of candiru swimming up the urethra of urinating individuals.

I think they said on the show that this was the only "documented" case.
