THE BRAVE FISH in AMAZON
NEVER EVER EVER pee in the
water. There's a tiny catfish
called the Candiru that can hurt
you very badly.
The
Candiru is the star of an urban
legend — which turns out to be true — of a man who was
urinating in the Amazon River
when a 6-inch Candiru swam
up his urine stream into his
penis. The fish remained there
for days, until a surgeon was able to remove it.
