This is an old story, but I just came across it and HOLY COW!

Turns out there are freshwater fish that could swallow me whole.

Yeah, too bad they need the food so badly that they killed it, that species of cat is getting to be pretty rare. At first I thought it was a hoax, but it turns out they do get pretty huge, even if that one specifically was a bit of an aberration.

Amazing! I saw a show about catching cats on 12-14 ft telescoping crappie rods. What a hoot.

I have seen some big cats but that is just nuts! I have heard of divers working on Dams and they get scared by the size of cats they see but that one is just crazy!

These are two giants from the Amazon basin... the Arapaima gigas was actually caught in Guyana on a fly. All two fish were released.
