I just love how at least half of posts here convientelly missing some facts.

- Poor Gooldfish didn't feel any acid because it was dead in a sec by his teeth.
- When we are at it, I watched few clips out of curiousity and every living thing he ate was dead in a blink of an eye, if you watch him eating Tarantula I can bet you won't be able to think of a faster way of Tarantula getting killed in it's natural environment.
- Goldfish wasn't his pet, it was 1st April's joke, but I guess no one of you watched clip to the end, as much as Dailymail didn't watch it to the end.
- He didn't blend live mice, they were dead before put in blender.
- Etc...

Lets focus on fish(es). I live in city with lake, every day of year there are bunch fishermen at the lake fishing. Most of them not even to eat those fishes but for fun. Ways they kill those fishes can't even be compared to swift death of this guy's Goldenfish.

What I find most distrubing is that some of you would literally send all those people to jail and ruin entire families... and you have no shame coming here and posting about awefulness of this video.

Good job, be sure to do everything you can that this men gets his life ruined by jail sentence for killing fish faster then 99% people from all around the globe who work in that industry or fish just for fun.

At the end of the day, that guy and his videos are total unneeded bullshit but I am more "offended" by you little pathetic instant-activists after you get served by tabloid like Dailymail fighting for small things targeting easy prey to sleep better with your "clear" conscience.


amazing post my man, nothing to do but get sad seeing people and justice going after a guy that ate a fish alive.. seriously people needs to use his time fixing real problems..

@Above: are you really all missing the point that the goldfish drowns in acid while alive?


He bit through the head of the goldfish as he first put it into his mouth, killing it right away.

Did you watch the video? The fish most certainly did not drown in acid.

Also, on a related note, when you go fishing (if you ever have before), when you clean a fish, you generally start by cutting its head off. I don't see how this is different.

I find it hilarious they're trying to fine/arrest him. Good luck with that, how pathetic.

I am completely behind this. I find eating any animal when it's still alive, or the torture of animals for your own amusement completely disgusting. I don't consider myself particularly oversensitive but I hope this guy gets his just deserts.

Where do you draw the line when it comes to eating things alive? You're allowed to eat a goldfish alive but not a cat or a dog? They are considered pets and you couldn't say "it's just a goldfish, after all" and then say it's not OK to consume a dog when it's alive, because then I say to you, it's just a dog, after all.

I think he should get jail time and get fined for animal cruelty.

I feel this way, but I also feel they will overfine this guy and ruin part of his life just to make a point, I see PETA jumping all over this and screwing it up too. This guy needs to be given a small fine, but nothing huge, make your point and then leave. Less is more IMHO in this case.

I don't think the issue is that he has eaten the fish but that he made it public and as advertisement for his Youtube channel. It's the same like if you beat your dog with a paper. If someone does it at home no one cares, if he streams it he'll get sued.

Since when eating became a crime. Plus, people care more about some stupid goldfish, while people starve to death and no one helps them. I guess Goldfish>People, since a goldfish can give you 3 wishes.

Also it's cruelty to put someone into jail for eating a fish.

There was a tv show in the UK where celebrities had to eat some live magots and insects and stuff in the jungle as part of a "bush tucker trial".They got applauded for doing it and that stuff got broadcast to millions of homes. this really isnt much worse :-/

It's a goldfish.. the amount of suffering and distress it can feel is marginally above (if at all) that of an insect. It's not a cat or a dog. It's not even a mouse (that people feed alive to their snakes btw), it's a f'in GOLDFISH.

How did you come to your conclusions? There are thousands of agencies helping starving people all over the world, so how does that count as "nobody helping them." Are you just talking for the sake of talking? I can understand people being upset that this guy is getting "jailed/fined" for eating a fish, but your post is just stupid.

According to the article, invertebrates are not illegal to eat. Apparently because it has a backbone you deserve to be punished.

Should we punish every fish that eats other fish? exactly the same fucking thing. Shouldnt everyone who has ever gone fishing be sentenced to pay 20k? Hooking a fish throught the head with a fishinghook is way more cruel then just eating it...

for the love of god people! -.-

lol @ animal activists is all i have to say. Animals eat each other when they're alive all the time. Ever seen a snake eat a mouse? Or a pack of wolves tear into a moose? Or even a cat pounce on a bird? It's part of life. If he chooses to eat a goldfish, great, that's weird but there's nothing wrong with it.

If he ate my goldfish without asking me, I might get mad, but if he eats his own goldfish or one someone gave to him, then that's his own business.

This is just another case of someone taking someone to else to court over the smallest issue possible in order to try and get money out of it. There's no justification involved, and frankly the people who brought this up are pathetic.

I agree with the peopel who say fish get eaten alive all the time in the wild, how is this any different? Bit into it head first so it died really fast and didn't put it under any unecessary cruelty I would say. Seems to me like it is simply eating something.

This post is so well written it should be in the OP. Absolutely agree with your sir. Cant stand arguing with activists who are irrational in their thoughts and behavior.

It's a fucking fish. A non-intelligent, swim in circles, fish. What a horrible way to start my morning, seriously pissed off now. Anyone in this thread who says he deserves any form of punishment, you better be a vegetarian.
