martinezlaura+FollowDoomsday Fish Washes Up—Omen or Nah?A massive, three-meter-long oarfish (aka the legendary 'doomsday fish') just washed up on a Tasmanian beach, and the internet is spiraling. These deep-sea giants almost never show up near shore, so people are freaking out—especially since Japanese folklore says they’re a sign of disaster. Experts say it’s probably just a sick fish, but when something this wild washes up, you can’t help but wonder: is it just a weird day at the beach, or is something big coming? #Oarfish #DoomsdayFish #Tasmania #Science6396Share
