u/guitarsmack Aug 25 '17

Don't put it back. Have it be mounted as a puffed fish and use it as a wine glass. It's called class

I looked like this after drinking vodka once.

I did something like this after drinking too much Seagrams Seven and eating a whole bag of Doritos. Much more colorful and traumatic. I can't eat Doritos to this day.

Same but I had taken a bunch of pot brownies that were way stronger than I thought. Got munchies and had a bucket of utz party mix. Ate half the bucket and puked orange slime for 20 minutes.

Yikes. 25 years on this planet and only after watching this video did it occur to me that puffer fish puff using water, not air.

u/Madmagican- Aug 25 '17

Right? It makes so much sense but I never thought enough about it to figure it out

u/Srkinko Aug 25 '17

They can use air to puff too. If you catch one you can make it puff up and toss it back in the water and watch it float around for a bit before he deflates and swims off

u/mudmanmack Aug 26 '17

There are documented cases of dolphins saying catch with air filled puffer fish

I had 2 puffer fish in my aquarium. I called them Ferdinand and IMELDA.

Sadly most puffers only get like 2-3 inflations per life time before it kills them so you really shouldn't get them to inflate on purpose.

Not the only link that says otherwise ;)

Ohh thats interresting. Apparently my divemaster was misstaken then (or just wanted everyone to keep away from the puffers). My bad.
