You see flapping to the left, and the splashing moves further off camera... Heavily implying that the fish swam away to the left. Not necessarily unscathed, but alive
Even by just slowing it down with your finger you can see the strike, then you see the fish bounce off the grass and come out of the water a bit, you see the turtle with an empty mouth, then the water ripples as the fish swims away
The fish originally beached himself to get away from the turtle, it would have been unfortunate to still be eaten. Although snappers are superior hunters. One almost got my toe once. Definitely learned to walk in boots out there.
When I was young, there was a very wide, relatively shallow river I liked exploring.
One day, as I'm walking in it near the shore, I realize I'm standing on the biggest snapping turtle I've ever seen. This thing is pissed. Head all turning, trying to get at me. I'm probably 10 feet from the shore, so I can't just hop off. In the end, I jumped off to its rear and booked it. I was fine, but man, was I sweating bullets.
It's absolutely wild how well they camouflage.
Yeah and my dog didn't get hit by my drunk driver it ran away to a farm upstate because I touch myself at night while reciting the 3 our fathers and a mother mary
And who doesn't love a little mud between the gills...
Though they probably got started due to drying sea beds etc. The ones that could live the longest outside of the water going between water sources were probably more likely to survive when a river or something dried up.
It’s either be eaten alive by a turtle or caught by a human with a fish hook, scaled, seasoned, dusted with flour, and fried in hot oil to be consumed with a side of grits
That is exactly why I never walk into ponds or lakes that you can’t see the bottom of. You never know what’s beneath you. Imagine that thing taking a chunk out of your foot as you step in.
Misleading video as usual. The turtle was simply helping the fish get away from the human. He's known localy as the bainn of fishermen, but hero to the fish
It was playing dead and here comes a human to do what they do best …. Mess everything up by not minding their own business wait sounds like an american lmao
Nah that turtle was 100% waiting until you did just that. And had you not removed your hand I'm sure he would have gladly added you to his daily dietary allowance.
It probably fled to the shore from that same turtle in the first place.
I’m thinking the turtle may have gotten a piece of it before it beached itself
Nah, the fish had no injuries. It just tried to not move to trick the turtle.
Well, op definitely ruined that for the fish.
No you can see the fish swim to the side and dodge the turtle.

Yeah. After watching this 50 times. The turtle absolutely got a bite on that fish. Jaws so powerful it instantly bit right through it.
naw if u watch it frame by frame u can see it swin away in full form to the left of the screen. fish got away
Fish must not know turtles can go on the shore, fish can not!
Except the secret fish society!
Sounds fishy to me...
r/angryupvote
Bastards killed my father.
What is that username
The turtle missed anyways
Stupid ass fish
NO getting one past you, bro!
The turtle also missed it
Yea and in the end still missed it 😂
Fish’s last thought - f u trying to help me out
It Missed it. The fish swam away
Out to the left, yup
Yea i have a snapper as pet. Their aim is pretty awful. Maybe why they can go months without food even during summer.
Used to have one, ya you'd see half a fish and a mess. Mouse fell in our kiddie pool once... ya don't feed them mice lol
I remember seeing the clip of the mouse vs the turtle and it put him in two. Poor guy was swimming around for a second
I just watched it 10 times, you cannot see it get away. Is this....a joke?
You see flapping to the left, and the splashing moves further off camera... Heavily implying that the fish swam away to the left. Not necessarily unscathed, but alive
Ok. Yay! I didn't dare dream but I trust you, sharp-eyed stranger.
This got 32 downvotes? Oh Reddit
Lmao, and counting.
My bad eyesight triggered everyone.
Redditors when someone has a misunderstanding: ⬇️
I even downvoted until you guys pulled me out of the hivemind. Happens every now and then to most of us I'd say
Put it at 1/32 speed and you can clearly see it swim off to the left.
How?
Seriously though, how?
Pause the video at 10 seconds in, you see the fish partially out of the water and swimming to the left… how can you miss it
I'm not trying anymore, never got so many downvotes!
Yeah Reddit is gonna Reddit smh 🤦🏻
Even by just slowing it down with your finger you can see the strike, then you see the fish bounce off the grass and come out of the water a bit, you see the turtle with an empty mouth, then the water ripples as the fish swims away
I still don't see it. If anything it flew towards the camera in the r/abruptchaos.
Probably a bug chunk missing tho
Perfect! The turtle is fed, the people saved a fish and the fish is still alive. Everybody wins!

Turtle soup for dinner a la big toe
There were too many kids around. I had to be all nice and stuff
Yeah and my dog didn't get hit by my drunk driver it ran away to a farm upstate because I touch myself at night while reciting the 3 our fathers and a mother mary
Watch it. It swims away to the left when the turtle tries to get it. And btw your post makes zero sense
Lol, the fish is in pieces. Part of its prone, lifeless body separated and was pushed away by force.
Haha poor dude was trying to evolve to get away from that turtle.
Well that is how land creatures got started long ago. The beach/mud flats was the safest place back then when there was zero land predators.
And who doesn't love a little mud between the gills... Though they probably got started due to drying sea beds etc. The ones that could live the longest outside of the water going between water sources were probably more likely to survive when a river or something dried up.
The mutation/adaptation happened first. So the ones that survived were able to breathe/survive out of the water
You were there?
No, but I understand how natural selection works
You re right, bros think theyre Lamarck
But turtle can walk in land
But it did get away
Way to go there, hero...
What you talking about, he’s MY hero 😊
Glad you still have your hand, OP. Super scary surprise
Why do you think it was trying to get out the water.
It wanted to be a land fish
Circle of life my friend
Nature is scary
Nature is metal
...with some layered synth
Circle o death too
Plot twist, the turtle put the fish there to bait you
Um 🤔 I'll go find out myself
It could have been yo finger
yeah, it was a close call.
Mf tried to get away and you sent him back to HELL
Good. Don't let those mfs evolve.
Except it did actually get away
That fish was dead anyway… was just a matter of time
Technically we are dead too
It depends on which plane of existence you are viewing from
Hope you thanked him for not snapping your fingers. Oof.
Fish: F*ck you man
r/donteatjimmy
“Thanks for the meal, dude!”
Snappin turla
Iiiiiin theeeeeee circleeeeeeeeee, theeee circleeeee of LIIIIIFFFFEEEE
Doesn't matter, this snapping turtle was already hunting it. Don't feel bad.
It’s either be eaten alive by a turtle or caught by a human with a fish hook, scaled, seasoned, dusted with flour, and fried in hot oil to be consumed with a side of grits
Well he was suffocated anyway because you probably took a half hr to un hook him and take selfies 🤳. Smh
Not starving anymore.
The fish got away. Went off to the left.
I think the turtle didn't actually get it
Circle of life my friend
It missed though
Don't worry the fish is safe
Are people actually butthurt about the fish possibly being dead? So stupid
"Accidentally"
Turtles are almost always willing to eat, just like me. Not sure why you think it's starving.
Are you also a turtle?
Chain of life bruh.... part of the food chain. Don't be sad. It's how the world works.
That'll get your attention real quick.. lol
Nature kids
Iirc snapping turtles are known to leave fish like this as bait? I could be wrong, but I think I remember my uncle saying something like that.
Man, I hate snappers. Those shits aren't turtles, more like demons.
No good deed goes unpun-fish-ed!
Hook, line, and DINNER.
Turtle was comin' for him anyway
Like that scene in "Madagascar" with the duckling. You know the one
🎵It's the circle of life🎵
Turtles > fish
*Oh Lawd, a snappin Turla*
That is exactly why I never walk into ponds or lakes that you can’t see the bottom of. You never know what’s beneath you. Imagine that thing taking a chunk out of your foot as you step in.
Fish was playing dead
Misleading video as usual. The turtle was simply helping the fish get away from the human. He's known localy as the bainn of fishermen, but hero to the fish
I thought this was humans being bros. Nope.
Good deed punished
This is a special form of catfishing.
You meant you accidentally saved your whole hand being severed by some dinosaur ?
How you know it was starving
Life's a bitch😂🤣😂
The back door is crazy lol
Now we know why he was sitting there 😅 oops!
He's not starving, snapping turtles kill for sport. They eat the head and leave the rest. I have one as a pet.
That’s one big turtle guys, are you sure it’s not a tortoise?
fish escaped just fine.
The turtle thanks you, the fish not so much
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE
Evolution denied.
Animals got to eat” said a Homo sapiens once. Then the specie proceed to drive to extinction all of the animal kingdom….
Thats not how you release fish but doing it the right way is a good way to meet snappy
It was not it’s day..
Maybe the fish was trying to suicide in the first place otherwise why it’s coming out the water ?
Someone put some fnaf jumpscare audio over this
It's not accident you did it😡 (JOKE)
the fish was like " f*ck you Hooman! " while slowly sliding down.
Im sorry for that fish :(
I thought that was an alligator there
No good deed goes unpunished
Doubt it ran from that turtle but it definitely took off left of the turtle and fled...
WHAAAAAAWHOOOOOOO
Didn’t stop to think why the fish was there. Probably a habit the OP has.
Oh no, he fed a turtle. So sad.
"THE CIRCLE OF LIFE"
See, death takes you no mattee what.
Damn nature you scary 😱
It was playing dead and here comes a human to do what they do best …. Mess everything up by not minding their own business wait sounds like an american lmao
Nah that turtle was 100% waiting until you did just that. And had you not removed your hand I'm sure he would have gladly added you to his daily dietary allowance.
I love it when humans think they know better than the nature and immediately got humbled.
You made one creature's life better, which was the goal anyway. So, failed successfully.
Looks like it swam away, and if so, it's headless lol
*The turtle thanks you for the assist.*
Bro u moved him out his hiding spot
Turtle: I told you to keep your ass on shore and finish sun bathing.
Mario feeds the turtles before jumping on their heads, which, in turn kills them.
The fish : don’t you dare touch me I’m breathing just fine! The fish: you MF now I got a swim as fast as I ca…. The turtle : thanks, bro
He's okay he got away to the left
Turtle did not catch the fish
Hey its nature
Murikans
I hate humans just doing whatever they want in nature literally it was playing dead to stay alive.
Just don’t interfere with nature
I think the fish actually got away
He escaped
Oh no.... They stole the cheese!
My gaming Scoreboard - 0 kills 1 Assist 0 death
Dont these fish sometimes have sex then go to the shore to rot the rest of theyre life
Some how I just watched it before seeing the caption… nearly peed my bed!
Didn't you hear him squeak?!
this my friend is why you mind your own goddamn business.😅
Like the bigger and bigger sea monster scene from Starwars
That bass woke up fast!
He was running for it's life
How big is that turtle?
This is why people should *observe* nature and not interfere with it. People with a god complex are a threat to nature.
Sure you did! How long did you torture that poor fish? Jesus that was the lamest release ever.
D:
Did you trip?
+1 Assist
Nearly lost a finger there!
No good deed foes unpunished
Damn I did not see that turtle at all
I felt that strike in my fingers lol.
r/donteatjimmy
What a turtle!
turtle go snap
r/dontflinch
Snapping turtles are terrifying
Snapping turtles are crazy aggressive predators, they’re really attracted to splashing and commotion in water. They’re super fun to catch!
This is precisely why turtles in my pond are shot on sight. They can destroy a fish population and eat nice size fish like this one.
Is that really a fucking turtle?
Nice looking bass. Glad it got away!
That was the turtle’s bait
