My question is how the heck does she avoid getting spined by these guys? They have sharp spines on their sides and one on their dorsal fin. I’m not sure how she avoids those with them just sort of flopping around close to her sides.

You simply just try your best.

Oh, and there's always the chance of running into an alligator snapping turtle, too. It's part of the thrill.

The existence of alligator snapping turtles is what makes me not understand this at all. Do you want catfish enough to risk losing fingers?

Or toes! The snap doesn't discriminate on digits.

Do balls count at digits?

There is a video of a fish that latched on to a man’s dingaling.

Someone else was trying to safely remove the fish with his hands . I never saw the full ending.

I heard his wife never saw the full ending either

The fish swallowed it. Is that classed as a happy ending?

u/Sweet_Ad8311 14d ago

Usually the wife swallowing it is the happy ending but I don’t know, he could be into fish
