I am 57 years old I remember when I was 9 years old, my uncle, my father and some of his friends, went fishing for swordfish in Mediterranean sea north of Crete island . They return after 4 days with a monster swordfish a little bit more than 700 kilos!. I remember they said, it was bigger than the biggest tuna they ever saw . l don't know if in ourdays can grow so big.

The fin in the Marlin is like a fan - they hunt in groups and those huge "fans" corral the fish.

I will pay to have an hour video about theses two fishes.
We know they’re fast, but there are very few videos about their anatomy and evolutionary adaptation that make them such an apex predators.

Tgis video is a mess lol. You say many people confuse swordfish for marlin and sailfish, but you are constantly confusing them showing a mix all 3 species throughout the video. In fact you show marlin more than swordfish. Also, swordfish do have scales, and not having teeth is not an adaptation for speed. Finally, marlin, sailfish and swordfish are closely related. They are not in the same family, swordfish are in their own family, however marlin and sailfish are more closely related to swordfish than any other fish.
