School of snakehead fish leap from water in rare spectacle
A few taps on a plastic barrel are all it takes to cue a school of snakehead fish before they spring from the water in perfect sync, delighting visitors in Sa Dec ward in the Mekong Delta.
A video of the unusual scene at Sa Dec Flower Garden has gone viral on social media. In the clip, a man tosses fish feed into the pond while rhythmically knocking on a plastic barrel, a signal the fish appear to recognize. Moments later, the calm surface erupts as dozens of snakehead fish repeatedly jump into the air in response.
Their synchronized leaps send sharp splashes echoing through the colorful garden, turning the simple setup, just a plastic barrel and handfuls of feed, into an unexpected attraction. Onlookers burst into laughter and cheers as they watch the lively display.
