OMG, Are those for real? I will never take another step into an ocean, lake or bath tub
again. Hope when the end does come we are not surrounded by water. But I will stand
out as I will be the one at the very top of the highest moutain, building or whatever.
The third picture looks sort of humanistic in a creepy kind of way.

I'm pretty sure that all of the ones that GSP posted, with the exception of the deep sea angler, are photoshoped. Funny though

well i know for a fact that the first (the name escapes me at the moment) and the last (the angler) are indeed real fish. Ive never seen the middle two myself.

All I will say is that the second fish was discovered in a lake in Utah a few years back--100% real fish, no photoshopping. There might be one that is shopped but Im not saying
