#BluefinTuna #Fish #worldrecord

Following is a transcript of the video:

Recently, the most expensive Koi ever was sold in Japan for a huge amount of 1.8 million dollars, less than 5 days in 2019 there is another bizarre record from Japan. This time it is a bluefin tuna that was sold for, $ 3.1 million US dollars. The buyer? Self-styled Tuna King Kyoishi Kimura.

But why is this tuna so expensive? Well we have the anwser!

In recent years, the popularity of sushi has increased all around the world. But that is not the only reason why this bluefin tuna has been auctioned for this high amount. Before a piece of tune ends up in your stomach it has traveled from Japan all the way to your country.

The bluefin tuna is extremely rare and is known for its very high quality meat. Catching a bluefin tuna is also a specialty that takes a lot of effort.

Anyways, traditionaly the first tuna of the year that has been auctioned sets the tone for the rest of the season. So that’s the reason this tuna is so expensive. You can call this a good marketing and publicity-stunt of mister Kyoishi Kimura.

He could also have bought 10 second hand ferrarias or a very large yacht.

That’s crazy money! At least koi you can enjoy for many years!!! Just curious when will we see your pond? Would be cool to get a walk through of all the equipment 👍

[jgborn]

you didn't really explain why its so expensive. I was expecting a little more more info or some more content. You did good at editing and graphics and narration but need more content. Just my two cents, keep up the good work man

[YaacoubKari]

great channel 👍 and nice videos, i sub'd

[nicke]

He’ll sell that prepared for 4m dollars!

[Mike]

That's over $5, 000.00 per POUND for this fish. The buyer is crazy ! I get solid chunk tuna tins in my local store for only a dollar each !

I would probably invest 1 million dollars in several high end franchises and be an entreprenuer, and would invest around 500K in stocks (for long term only) then i would buy the Ducati Superleggera for $80, 000 and the Porsche 911 GT3 for $144, 650 and i would have exactly 1375350$ left out, would buy a nice home for 1M and the rest 37K would of course be spent on hoes and crack.

There are so many things I would do with €3m, but what I can say for sure is that I would NOT be spending it on a dead fish.

[stzard]

good idea, don't spend 3.1M on one single thing

[kuyakel]

That tuna is caught from Davao, Phillipines. Japanese came here to buy some tuna and then they will tell to everybody that they caught that tuna in Japan.

[wyomingadventures]

Very interesting video I have watched a series on catching blue fin tuna in the Atlantic ocean would love to taste that tuna I'm sure it's expensive 🍽⛩😜✌

[gemelitopaclibar]

The question is, how much did the poor fisherman who caught that tuna get? If he is from the PHILIPPINES, I would guess that he was paid a pittance for that fish. Maybe around $2000, not even 1 percent of the price.

[TW-hkuw]

Building a small school for the poor, and have them eat fish caught by local fishermen. But then such entrepreneurs won't see this as money well spent.

[sophiadeloach]

I would spend that money on a koi pond get away. Where you can enjoy the koi and dinner and dance with breakfast by the ponds
