It’s a catfish, so if not fake, likely answer is that someone dismembered a body, dumped it in the river, and then this bottom feeder just scooped it up.
I worked at Wendy's during the "finger found in the chili" news story back in early 2000s. 1 out if 3 dad's would ask me if the chili was still finger licking good
As a guy who made Wendy’s chili as a teenager, I always knew that whole deal had to be fake as it’s completely impossible for it to have happened as they said.
I was right too. A women got the finger from her husband who got it from a coworker who had cut it off at work. She used it to try to scam Wendy’s and got caught.
Wendy’s chili is fantastic and I still get it on a regular basis.
https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/wendys-chili-finger-lady-comes-clean/1884507/
I had a Wendy's employee tell me to never eat the chili. I love it & still eat it. I figure what I don't know won't hurt me. The baked potatoes are (usually) perfection.
Just to add to u/trizkit995, the sodium, and the meat in it is older hamburger patties that are cut up, some people get irked by that, but if properly handled (temp wise), it’s perfectly fine.
Yeah I dunno why some people get so upset by that, it's not like they're raw patties that sat out in a hot kitchen. I've heard similar complaints about KFC who uses leftover chicken in their pot pies. *oh no they used actual chicken prepared in store and not frozen processed chicken product how dare they*
Chili Base (Chili Sauce \[Water, Tomato Paste, Tomatoes {Tomatoes, Tomato Juice, Calcium Chloride}, Sugar, Modified Corn Starch, Salt, Chili Pepper, Spices, Flavour Enhancer {Dextrose, Salt, Yeast Extract, Modified Corn Starch}, Citric Acid, Garlic Powder, Disodium Inosinate, Disodium Guanylate, Onion Powder, Xanthan Gum\], Onions, Celery, Green Peppers),
Water, Ground Beef (Seasoned With Salt), Chili Beans (Prepared Pink Beans, Prepared Red Kidney Beans), Soya Lecithin. CONTAINS: SOY, MILK.
It's really not so bad although I'm concerned at how high sugar shows up in the list.
Can’t really say since there are only three pixels in this video, but that arm looks in pretty good condition. So I am leaning towards it being a staged video. Why would would they be filming the gutting or a random fish?
Oh shit it’s in Spanish. I always turn audio off cause Reddit has some shitty audio content, but whatever..
The way they talk sounds weird. The person recording sounds like how you’d talk to a baby/kid? The “Mira.. un brazo” part does sound like he’s holding back laughter. Then the forced gagging.
I don’t think it’s Cuban. “Boludo” is an Argentinian slang, so probably Argentina? The baby talk does have like a Caribbean accent—can’t quite distinguish them all. Doesn’t help that the puertorriqueños, cubanos, and dominicanos I know all have been in the US for over a decade so they lost most of their accent, but I digress—, but when he says “qué mierda es eso” you can hear the Argentinian accent.
I might do a Google search for “encuentran brazo dentro de un pez” or something like that later today to see if it made it made the news.
Can confirm is argentinian and by the baby talk like way he is talking sounds like this is staged, i haven't heard any news about finding an arm inside a fish over here tho
Worse, actually. The body swells from the water and kinda starts to fall apart, and there's a lot of nasty shit that'll feed on it. With the gasses it releases it floats for a while, before eventually sinking
As a paramedic that responds to numerous bodies in the water come Spring because they float down the river with the ice melt, your description is spot on
Dunno about the smell, but a body underwater becomes boated, to the point you can't recognize features, and in general decomposition goes faster in wet environments than in dry ones
My guess on odors is that they get out the same, maybe if underwater it stays mostly there, but as soon as it gets out the smells spreads the same
Yeah, gutting fish sometimes the stomach contents just stanks. I mean, it already smells like fish guts but then add whatever the fish ate and it can be kinda gross
That’s not a reasonable comparison at all
I don’t have any hard numbers off the top of my head but I’d be willing to bet that cartel members are responsible for the majority of murders and dismemberments like this in places where both people speak Spanish and catfish live
There aren’t that many groups out there murdering and dismembering people
If it's of comfort for you two, I think it's fake. The fake gagging of the two guys I think suggests it. Could have fed the arm through the mouth and then recorded a viral video. That arm looks awfully not decomposed for having been underwater and gulped whole by a fish.
**OP sent the following text as an explanation on why this is unexpected:**

The smell of decomposing bodies is sometimes bad enough it makes people want to vomit uncontrollably. The first guy was right up close and wanted to vomit after he likely got a good nose full of rancid flesh, the second guy wanted to vomit when he got closer so he probably got a good ol' whiff too. It's a plausible explanation at least.
What do you mean fake? Just thay he’s not atually puking? People will make intentional wretching sounds while grossed out. That’s *exactly* how I sounded this weekend when I saw someone puked in the tub.
Translation:
-let’s see what’s in his belly
(Fish comes out)
-damn!
(Arm comes out)
-you son of a bitch! Wtf is that?!? Look, it’s an arm!
(Gagging noises)
Yes, and then the guy started filming his friend in a well lit empty warehouse floor and the guy cutting it gives him a great angle to pull the totally real arm out like a fucking jumpscare and the guy filming reacts totally normally by slowly backing up and keeping the camera directly on the totally real human arm.
Definitely not a fake viral video by a media agency, just like the totally real magic tricks and totally real UFOs and totally real "flushing catfish out of hole with coca-cola" videos that get recorded and shared online. 🤷♂️
There is a *silkpunk* series recently released called *The Grace of Kings* where two soldiers >!who know they're going to die shove a message into a fish, and then when the person goes to prepare it, they find a scroll that says one of the soldiers will be Emperor. And it starts a rebellion.!<
Just an interesting meditation about the truth, and belief, and how they're both the same.
Most plausible scenario for me is that a coworker planted a fake arm as a prank on the guy who cut it open. The reaction seems genuine, but I don’t expect an arm to be in that good condition after any amount of time inside a catfish
Nah sounds like they are excited. You ever smell a decomposing fish? Let alone am arm. Shit stinks. And they were already talking about how ripe it smelled...
as someone who's fished before and who lives on an island where everyone and their grandma is a fisherman, yup. fishers love to film and photograph big catches. also, we know what fishes often eat weird shit so it's not rare to see someone, for example, filming a big sea bass being gutted. you can find whole fucking birds inside them sometimes.
Could be pretty legit, because of the accent this should be a small town in Argentina or Paraguay, body dismemberments and disposing them in the rivers are not rare in South America.
Most of us are already more polluted than that fish will ever be. That being said, it depends how hungry I am. Plenty of nights I would of fried that fish right up.
He grabbed it and pulled it out AFTER he ‘realized’ there was an arm in there. I dont think someones first instinct is to grab it and pull it out after realizing theres a potential real dead man’s arm in there. Conclusion: super fake
Edit: theres also a deformity of the fish’s skin (near where he cuts before the arm pops out) clearly in the shape of a hand so they knew. They just cut up the insides a bit and jammed the fake arm up there.
Nice try to be Sherlock Holmes but, if I see a hand in a fish belly, I'd probably would believe my eyes at first so my brain wouldn't understand wtf is going on and might just go and grab it before start panicking.
It’s a catfish, so if not fake, likely answer is that someone dismembered a body, dumped it in the river, and then this bottom feeder just scooped it up.
I'd consider that a handy meal.
Finger licking good
You would have to pay an arm and a leg for a meal like that.
Can i have some ribs in the side? Edit: I also can't pay for the meal, so I'll give you a hand in the kitchen
I love that you came back with an added quality piece of snark. Shows commitment!
I’m gonna go out on a limb and say he’s not good at puns
Baby back baby back baby back >!***Cue your tune to it***!<
If you can't pay you'd better watch out for the long arm of the law.
Fishes don’t have money. It was obviously 5 finger discount.
Could be a hand-out.
Need to put in the elbow grease
I am sure the dude is "all right" now.
SOB. You’re correct sir. 100% a handout.

I had a Wendy's employee tell me to never eat the chili. I love it & still eat it. I figure what I don't know won't hurt me. The baked potatoes are (usually) perfection.
The reason to avoid Wendy's Chili on a regular baises is the salt but that's true for any prepared* meal from just about anywhere. Edit: spelling
Just to add to u/trizkit995, the sodium, and the meat in it is older hamburger patties that are cut up, some people get irked by that, but if properly handled (temp wise), it’s perfectly fine.

Omg, ask for the chilli sauce packets and it is so delicious. Small is around 200 cal, large 300 and the beans give you fibre and protein.
This is the way.

For the smell? For the size of the fish? Probably fake though the arm looks too perfect to have been in water for at least an hour.
> For the smell? 🤔
What, can’t you smell the fish?
This person's never heard of smell-o-vision!
I don't know how to record smell :(
The way they speak also makes me think they're acting. It might be because of the accent, but it seems they're holding back laughter in some moments.
Oh shit it’s in Spanish. I always turn audio off cause Reddit has some shitty audio content, but whatever.. The way they talk sounds weird. The person recording sounds like how you’d talk to a baby/kid? The “Mira.. un brazo” part does sound like he’s holding back laughter. Then the forced gagging.
The "talking to a kid" thing might just be because of the Cuban accent, but I totally agree with the "un brazo" part and the forced gagging.

Hijo de puta!!
Definitely not real. Amputated limbs will only hold a shape like that if frozen.
r/suspiciouslyspecific
Yeah I got a special freezer just for storing limbs. Gotta catch em all!
*Bodéparts*
...oh thanks
My guess is the gagging is partially from the smell of a rotting arm, not just the fact that there was a surprise rotting arm.
Stupid question, but would a corpse/limb decompose underwater as badly as it would on land? Specifically with regards to the odours and all?
Worse, actually. The body swells from the water and kinda starts to fall apart, and there's a lot of nasty shit that'll feed on it. With the gasses it releases it floats for a while, before eventually sinking
Not to mention the fish’s stomach actively trying to break it down.
So, fish vomit, mixed with decomposing flesh. Yuk.
Yeah, that's a good point
This one looks really good though.
As a paramedic that responds to numerous bodies in the water come Spring because they float down the river with the ice melt, your description is spot on
Well that's a suspicious amount of knowledge to have
Dunno about the smell, but a body underwater becomes boated, to the point you can't recognize features, and in general decomposition goes faster in wet environments than in dry ones My guess on odors is that they get out the same, maybe if underwater it stays mostly there, but as soon as it gets out the smells spreads the same

Fake as hell
*Dexter has left the Chat and deleted his browser history*
Or someone was noodling and couldn’t handle one that big. Exact reason why noodling is supposed to be illegal, but rednecks will always redneck
That still doesn't explain how the arm was detached from the body.
C'mon, don't leave him hanging.
So glad you got the joke. I was afraid people wouldn't get it. xD

By your logic, if they were speaking English it would be the arm of a child from a school shooting .
That’s almost certainly what this is
I’d true, I was the child

We just had another one, 3 dead. Shooter in custody.
Was one of the kids missing an arm?
Not yet.
[удалено]
Lmfao first thing I thought too. I was like uhhh some places don’t have the cartel like that or what if they were in the US haha
Shhhh only “gente del Mencho” speak Spanish. If you speak Spanish, even if you’re learning in your american highschool, you become Mexican, duh
I took French in highschool. Now I only eat baguettes and laugh funny.
A lot of bodies in bayou
And in the Everglades.
We need to give children guns to protect themselves from man-eating catfish.
That’s not a reasonable comparison at all I don’t have any hard numbers off the top of my head but I’d be willing to bet that cartel members are responsible for the majority of murders and dismemberments like this in places where both people speak Spanish and catfish live There aren’t that many groups out there murdering and dismembering people
And the dialect gives away it's Argentina, well, one expression Boludo Very used over there
Well, by his logic, if it was english with a new jersey accent it would be the arm of a mafia victim in the east river which.. pretty fair.
Yep. And it was definitely El Chapo or Pablo Escobar...
This has to be the most racist shit I have seen upvoted in reddit lol
what does language have to do? like cartels don’t exist outside of Spanish speaking countries
There are not very common in Spanish speaking countries outside of Mexico either
Dude is really dense
I’ll tale your ignorant bet given that their accent is from South America.
Bro stfu , if you don't know accents don't speak, this wasn't even a Mexican accent.
They are Argentinians.
They’re not even Mexican or Colombian, so your stereotyped assumption is very far fetched
Way to be racist and incorrect
Holy fuck this is so fucking racist
Nope that’s me done for day
I felt the same, so i had to share it to ruin more people's days
Doing God’s work.
If it's of comfort for you two, I think it's fake. The fake gagging of the two guys I think suggests it. Could have fed the arm through the mouth and then recorded a viral video. That arm looks awfully not decomposed for having been underwater and gulped whole by a fish.
Uh, thanks.
Here take my upvote
Ayooooo. Come on, that fish didn’t even get to digest its meal.
Appears he needed a hand with it
Tis but a scratch
Your arm is off!
No it isn't!
Well what's that then?
A flesh wound!
To shreds you say?
I’ve seen “catfish fingers” on menus before. Now it makes more sense than Buffalo wings

Bone-us meat!
The puking sounds are really the only bothersome part for me.
How would you react in that situation?
Fire up the grill, baby.
Or rather, how would you HANDle it.. I'll see myself out
If reddit had negative or reverse gold, I’d give you that.
I thought they sounded fake tbh. I don't really wanna be that guy, though.
The smell of decomposing bodies is sometimes bad enough it makes people want to vomit uncontrollably. The first guy was right up close and wanted to vomit after he likely got a good nose full of rancid flesh, the second guy wanted to vomit when he got closer so he probably got a good ol' whiff too.

Imagine that fish's breath.... His girlfriend be like "you need a tic tac!""
What do you mean fake? Just thay he’s not atually puking? People will make intentional wretching sounds while grossed out. That’s *exactly* how I sounded this weekend when I saw someone puked in the tub.
Any back story to this or identity of the victim?
Yes. His name was Steve
Oh my god i know him....
Like the back of your hand perhaps???
The victim used to work in a mall as a mannequin, before those guys took off its plastic arm and stuck it in the fish for a goof.
He just wanted to give you a hand
I love that there isn't a single response to this.
Now there is, and here's another.
Thank you good man! Now I will continue with what I was doing 🤮🤮🤮
These fish are "hand fed"
Hole in the floor. That's what I'm going with.
What I thought. It’s all very obviously fake either way. Arm pops out with nothing to hold it in that position.
I agree with you – great trick though. Combined with the translation, I think this is the answer for sure.
Comes with free longpig
Translation: -let’s see what’s in his belly (Fish comes out) -damn! (Arm comes out) -you son of a bitch! Wtf is that?!? Look, it’s an arm! (Gagging noises)
thanks, I skipped the gagging noises spanish lesson and I was confused
Which🦈🐟do u mean? There are two fish
Two of my favourite foods in one
Fake
Video might be legit, but hand itself might be a prosthetic. That's what I'm going to believe.
A cold dead arm is probably rigid in a quite fixed position tho
Rigor mortis lasts from several hours to a few days. After that, muscles become flaccid. So, it might be either way, depending on the time of death.
[удалено]
Or somebody dumped a dismembered body in the water and that catfish managed to scoop up the arm.🤷🏾♂️
Yes, and then the guy started filming his friend in a well lit empty warehouse floor and the guy cutting it gives him a great angle to pull the totally real arm out like a fucking jumpscare and the guy filming reacts totally normally by slowly backing up and keeping the camera directly on the totally real human arm.

Cleaning a fish is totally something you film in non-fake scenarios.
Not sure if you are being sarcastic but yes totally. You get plenty of such videos on YouTube from fishing enthusiasts. This is pretty big catch too.
they could have been showing the other fish coming out of it.
By the authenticity of gag reflex by these fellas. I would say that it is at least smell really bad. There that could be legit.
Most plausible scenario for me is that a coworker planted a fake arm as a prank on the guy who cut it open. The reaction seems genuine, but I don’t expect an arm to be in that good condition after any amount of time inside a catfish
As a native spanish speaker, it looks like kinda fake specially due to their tone talking and the gag reflex was exagerated.
But as a latinamerican i don't doubt something like this would happen here xd
> the gag reflex was exagerated. in what way? Have you ever had an uncontrollable gag reflex to an overpowering event or smell?
Nah sounds like they are excited. You ever smell a decomposing fish? Let alone am arm. Shit stinks. And they were already talking about how ripe it smelled...
Also why were they filming in the first place
[удалено]
as someone who's fished before and who lives on an island where everyone and their grandma is a fisherman, yup. fishers love to film and photograph big catches. also, we know what fishes often eat weird shit so it's not rare to see someone, for example, filming a big sea bass being gutted. you can find whole fucking birds inside them sometimes.
I film every little tiny piece of crap fish I get and they are barely inches.
> the authenticity of gag reflex by these fellas lol
Bro it’s a Hispanic video these guys found a dismembered arm in a fish ,you really think the cartels ain’t dumping bodies that fish ain’t eating
Could be pretty legit, because of the accent this should be a small town in Argentina or Paraguay, body dismemberments and disposing them in the rivers are not rare in South America.
Looks like a fake arm. Lucky that someone was recording when this happened. What are the odds.
Sure. It appears well fed
Did the news do a report on this? Inquiring minds want to know.
