@Sen Xu what do you mean fish in Alaska is disgusting? Alaska has some untouched nature, which has very little pollution! Different types of salmon are there. Halibut, crabs and plenty of delicious organic seafood there. Come on guy.
I think about that anytime I eat freshwater fish, especially cat fish. Imagine what that bottom feeder has eaten, dead animals, other fish, poop, maybe even a dead human lol
I grew up fishing for food just like him. But instead of avoiding the reef he’s avoiding the shopping carts. Everyone please stop judging him. This is the way we’re supposed to get our food. We should be more disgusted of how the LA river got this way and how we can make it better.
Seriously was terrified when he pulled that fish out that had a huge lump in it's stomach 💀💀💀💀 & he said the lump was moving???? if I was there that'd be the end for me and I'd excuse myself 🤣
“Heres your sashimi right here” Oh god no please dont eat it raw “Never in a million years would I actually eat this raw” Oh okay phew I thought you were serious
I have 1 Disgusting 🤮 I would love to do a pollution parts per million examination on the fish and the water. Arsenic, cyanide, lead and probably a little radioactive ☢️ would be found. Definitely E. coli and salmonella are rampant. But just keep eating them fish. Welcome to the great reset.
it wouldnt be a bad thing if it wasnt for the fact that the la river is disgusting there are so many other places this guy can go fishing but he goes there...
I feel like the best car salesman is at work. I actually caught myself thinking, "maybe that trash dump is not so bad" then I realized, "man, good narration and video editing can go a long way"
“I think most people think the fish here is inedible because it comes out of the LA river. The fish is ed - you can eat it.” Love the “you can technically eat it but I wouldn’t call it edible” pause he took there.
He should send a carp to a lab and have it tested for pollutants.....The Illinois river that flows south west out of Chicago has signs telling people not to eat fish over a certain size due to pollution/chemical/toxic metal buildup in the fish/meat.
I love his spirit! He is full of so much optimism and gratitude. The passion he has for the river is absolutely beautiful too. Thank you to everyone for making this video. I thoroughly enjoyed hearing his unique story. :)

Next episode: frying up gourmet Delaware River cat fish. Season finally: how to find the perfect turkey for thanks giving on the streets of chernobyl
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'd rather have Delaware River crab
😂
I grew up in Philly I used to go fishing along the Delaware River behind the airport, the water always stunk and the fish stunk too so I would never take them home!!🤮
The Delaware runoff crabs from it's always sunny in Philadelphia
On the latest episode of River Monsters with Jeremy Wade, he searches for a man eaten alive by mutant carp in the LA river.
😆😆😆
More like a mutant carp eaten by this man
"You don't wanna eat the skin"
I don't even wanna fish there.
Somebody got a new game console every christmas🤣
@@kirbyhimalaya777 I don't play any electronic games mate
@@kirbyhimalaya777 no one in their right mind would want to eat from that filth
@@XPClipzzz Thats true!
I fish a lot of places around LA, people will eat fish from fuckin anywhere. Even with signs all over the place saying not to eat the fish
Even if only 10 percent of LA residents cared about this river as much as this guy, it would become like a picturesque garden in a few years.
are there no city employes that take care of the rivers? In my country they get cleaned every week and we dont throw stuff into them.
@@romangarcia8706 this "river" is essentially a sewer canal, its filled with sewage, and drains into a flood channel. The video makes it seems like it is part of nature, but it is mostly man made.
@@MomoKunDaYo Ok thank you for the info didnt know that.
Let’s clean the river for this man.
He doesn’t want it cleaned. He likes it how it is
i was thinking about it but then more people would go there and it wouldn't be so special for him
@@bluesord114 f that once the river was clean he would love it even more so would the fish...
Man, that would be nice but LA/ Cali in general is going in the dumps even worse. Lots of poverty and not a lot of measures to fix it. Really wish they could clean it but ya know... Gavin Newsome
Isn't the "river" purely for sewer runoff? I always thought it was just the world's biggest gutter essentially.
I drove a lambo trough this river a couple times. Also i can fly underneath the bridges of this river upside down.
I fly over this river with my hover bike
If ykyk
Nobody cares
GTA V vibes 😂
Flown my oppressor and drove my kanjali through it and my dump truck (I had nothing good to do with the money I made)
This man is a legend! He is humble and doesn’t take anything for granted.
@@Rajabeta your mom is
Shut up
Covid 3.0 released on this day by a fisherman eating sewer salmon lol
😆😆
@Steven Universe I believe it was bats and pangolins
when he said "there's your sashimi" I yelled NOOO so loud the people next door probably heard me
thank god he didnt eat it
Haha...
Omg SAME
God I wish we could have had the audio of that yell, cause this comment is hilarious my friend!!!! Bwah ha frikkin ha bro! 😆
LOLOLOL!
He seems like such a cool dude. I would love to go fishing with him. Dude just radiates positivity.
Just radiates period
If he eats enough of this carp, he might be radiating Alpha particles and such xD
@@marksoliva2332 ☢️
He seems like a genuinely nice guy.
He knows full well that he eats those fish way more than once a year.
He’s probably immune to everything.
That Carp had a rat moving around in its stomach!
I’ve never had rat cat fish 😂
Thats beyond gnarly i wish we would’ve seen a close up of that
Carp is like "eff this I'm taking the bait"
No way a carp gonna eat a live rat man, it aint a predator they just forage on the bottom
@@gg.3812 thats right they’re bottom feeders so it could’ve been a piece of trash
When he said "Dumpster Dolphin" after that carp pulled a Flipper move, I lost it
Never ceases to amaze me where old elementary school classmates turn up on the internet....Fremont school
Wow no way haha
Hahaha

@@lostinthewoods3918 Frs what was he like
Gaby!!! Whaaaaaaat how are you and I know right! He's always been a great dude
*eats radioactive fish*
"I might be addicted, don't know what it is"
I don’t know if I would eat that fish, but I like this guys chill / cheerful outlook on life.
Did you see how clean the river looked when he was a kid? Crazy...
LA has gotten sooooo much worse in the past 40 years. And it will continue under the idiot politicians who could care less about the city’s problems
The past 40 years is also when California has seen its biggest influx of migrants from the south. The correlation must be a coincidence.
@@LucasMartin-im5ub LA has more than enough housing and money to help all the migrants that come here. Go be racist somewhere else
@@nicolelovett8467 I wonder where all of that money is. It must be stored safely in many politicians' overseas accounts. It's no wonder that those piles of money haven't been used to clean this crap up or even for housing/money for homeless American citizens. This is why the gov luvvs you. Sit down stand up take ur shawtt. That's a gud gerl :D. Go be rhee tartid somewhere else.

This guy needs to fish in Alaska. He'll never go back there lol
@Sen Xu 😕
@Sen Xu you’re nasty
@Sen Xu what do you mean fish in Alaska is disgusting? Alaska has some untouched nature, which has very little pollution! Different types of salmon are there. Halibut, crabs and plenty of delicious organic seafood there. Come on guy.
I don't think he goes there because he likes to fish, I think he goes there because it was a family tradition
Fish in alaska is nasty
Crazy thing he probably has eaten a carp that fed on a body
Don't tell him tho
That gives the fish that old hobo flavor all the kids are raving about.
Gross, but crabs and lobsters also do that if they come across one .....
@@everythingisfine9988 bruh you made me spit on my screen from laughing so hard
I think about that anytime I eat freshwater fish, especially cat fish. Imagine what that bottom feeder has eaten, dead animals, other fish, poop, maybe even a dead human lol
The only thing I ever caught there was Hepatitis A.
Best comment Bro lolol
F
very nice
Giggity
Gotta catch em all bro
I grew up fishing for food just like him. But instead of avoiding the reef he’s avoiding the shopping carts. Everyone please stop judging him. This is the way we’re supposed to get our food. We should be more disgusted of how the LA river got this way and how we can make it better.
it's literally a sewer drainage system
Aric Struthers it was once a natural river and essential water source. Now it’s a concretized water system and an eye sore.
Facts
Isn't it okay to be disgusted by both? This guy could probably get a heroin overdose just by drinking the water
@@mushmush4980 on god so many homeless people shidded and washed they booty in that water
All of a sudden people are gonna start fishing it and he’s gonna be super annoyed!
Yeah, why would you give up your spot?
but we can see the river in the video...
Actually, he’d probably be happy to show people how to fish.
😂funny right
People have been fishing the LA River forever....it's not like he revealing a new spot.
He probably has 99 fishing/cooking in Runescape.
Take me to the old days

Looool. scrolling comment and suddenly see this. I dont have reddit acc, someone plz post it on r/unexpectedrunescape
"Everything taste good swimming in oil" ngl he's not wrong 😂
Seriously was terrified when he pulled that fish out that had a huge lump in it's stomach 💀💀💀💀 & he said the lump was moving???? if I was there that'd be the end for me and I'd excuse myself 🤣
It devoured a rat whole
He's definitely taking -2 radiation damage every second he's in the water ..
Solid fallout reference 👌
imagining the radiation sound effect haha
He’s taking enough radaways!
radiation is everywhere tho even when u eat banana
No, he's not
The mercury levels in that fish are probably off the charts.
Dude I was looking for this comment
That's why he said he'd eat the fish once... A YEAR.
@@biteme8822 he’s so gross and nasty tho like cmon man methane? 🤮🤢
@@Clarozvozone methane isnt the problem
@@Clarozvozone let the man live his life calling him nasty😂
I love how he’s like “you can’t be eating this everyday... maybe once a year” 😂
“Heres your sashimi right here”
Oh god no please dont eat it raw
“Never in a million years would I actually eat this raw”
Oh okay phew I thought you were serious
I have no words
......
Stick to your fake rumor echo chamber please.
please quit youtube. Literally no one likes you.
I have 1
Disgusting 🤮
I would love to do a pollution parts per million examination on the fish and the water.
Arsenic, cyanide, lead and probably a little radioactive ☢️ would be found. Definitely E. coli and salmonella are rampant. But just keep eating them fish. Welcome to the great reset.
@@DanielCho1997 I never cover fake information lmao.
Bonus attribute: Zombies decline from biting him.
When society crumbles we'll all be fishing right next to him when you got to eat.
That's coming sooner than later too it seems
it wouldnt be a bad thing if it wasnt for the fact that the la river is disgusting there are so many other places this guy can go fishing but he goes there...
U got that right homie we will be fishing right next to him if TSHTF... nobody won't be saying nothing just munching up when ur hungry
I'd rather live off grass like a cow
So wednesday...
I feel like the best car salesman is at work. I actually caught myself thinking, "maybe that trash dump is not so bad" then I realized, "man, good narration and video editing can go a long way"
“I’ve got a lot of shopping carts right in front of me so I’m trying to keep that rod up” never in my life 😂
"I have the whole place to myself" lol no kidding 😂
I was thinking the exact same thing!
Needs to teach the homeless how to fish and cook the catch....
@@Rick_Sanchez_C137_ he should teach them
That's what he says in the bottom of an outhouse.
@@Rick_Sanchez_C137_ they probably are homeless for a reason. Not all, but many.
Man this guy has a great attitude for life. Im sure his positive demeanor helps carry him through life.
"I have the spot all to myself" Dude, you ALWAYS have the spot to yourself! lol
😂🤣😂🤣
Lmaooooooooo
"It's easy to forget you are in L.A." *Pans to garbage, sewer river*
“I think most people think the fish here is inedible because it comes out of the LA river. The fish is ed - you can eat it.”
Love the “you can technically eat it but I wouldn’t call it edible” pause he took there.
He should send a carp to a lab and have it tested for pollutants.....The Illinois river that flows south west out of Chicago has signs telling people not to eat fish over a certain size due to pollution/chemical/toxic metal buildup in the fish/meat.
I'm half-expecting this guy to catch that three-eyed fish from the Simpsons one day.
Omg I loved that fishy
I really wanted one of those as a pet when I was a kid!

Hi, I’m Johnny Knoxville and this is “ The LA River Buffet”.
Lol he actually jumped the LA river with roller skates and snapped his ankle
I love his spirit! He is full of so much optimism and gratitude. The passion he has for the river is absolutely beautiful too. Thank you to everyone for making this video. I thoroughly enjoyed hearing his unique story. :)
This guy LOVES fishing. His good vibes are infectious.
I needed some of this guy's energy, he seems so positive and upbeat. Definitely a rare sight in LA
This guy is a Filipino, tiks all the boxes
