Rare Encounter with Poisonous Stargazer Fish

Occurred on September 22, 2019 / Hurghada, Egypt

Info from Licensor: "This video was shot in the Red Sea near Hurghada. In the video, the Stargazer fish, otherwise known as a sea bug, swims and burrows into the sea bed. Thanks to the excellent ability to camouflage itself in the sand, it is practically invisible and not often found underwater. Very Dangerous! It has poisonous spines on the black dorsal fin and near the gills, as well as needles above the pectoral fins. When luring its prey, it releases a tongue resembling a worm, and provokes the victim to seize it, then it attacks."
