Roman Fedortsov, from Russia, said he caught the bizarre sea creature while on his commercial fishing boat in the Norwegian and Barents seas.
“Your face on the morning after New Year,” clowned someone else.
One helpful commenter floated an explanation as to why the fish was so puffy: “Deep sea fish bloating due to compression near the surface. It goes back to normal when it’s back in the deep oceans, it’s like when we go deep we feel the pressure. With this fish, it feels the pressure when it is reaching the surface.”
But another person dragged a key component of that theory: “Yes, except the part about it going back to normal. That fish is dead.”“Well, that’s terrifying,” another user stressed about the New Year’s Day catch.Jam Press notes the fish remains unidentified, with Fedortsov unsure of the species. The Post reached out to him for comment.
