Right.
But the very first one was especially the first time anyone saw T-Rex on camera.
That was like the first of its kind.
So Chilean sea bass went nuts, nuts to the point where it almost went extinct, where they had a chef program and it said, like, take a pass on Chilean sea bass.
And they tried to, like, slow it down because it was just out of control.
They're running out of them.
Yeah.
And so now.
Now it's regulated.
Now it's like a green-listed, good MSC-certified fish.
But what they do, actually, and people don't know, they go out in barges, like something you'd see that gets shipped overseas, and they go out for like three to six months.
They go out overseas, they catch them, cut the heads off, clean them all up, and they deep freeze them.
So, yeah, so they'll be out months at a time.
They'll catch 100,000 pounds, 200,000 pounds, bring it all back in.
And those animals are the smallest you get is like a 20-pounder up to like a 200-pound fish.
Geez, they're that big?
Yeah.
Yeah, they'll live up to like 57 years old.
Wow.
Yeah, they're very like prehistoric type fish.
