Yes, I have watched it few times. But I forget whether it is in Nat Geo or Discovery.

There was a person named Steve Irwin who use to handle dangerous animals like Crocodile but he was killed by a Stingray fish. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Irwin

Oh yes, these documentations have been shown in several European TV programmes. Steve Irvin was much appreciated - worldwide.

No, not this show, but also European TV channels show various documentary, scientific and similar films about nature and plants, wildlife, domestic animals, ecology, etc.


This fish is a giant goliath tigerfish, found probably in a tropical African river, like the Congo, for instance:

Other large and giant freshwater fishes like arapaima, alligator gar, various catfish, sturgeon, pike, salmon, giant "lamprey", piranha species, etc., are more or less often shown or referred to, including some more or less fantastic stories about pacus and other weird creatures.
