Park et al. report in the Journal of Paristology regarding a case of oral stings by spermatophores of the squid Todarodes pacificus. A 63-yr-old Korean woman experienced severe pain in her oral cavity immediately after eating a portion of parboiled squid along with its internal organs. She did not swallow the portion, but spat it out immediately. She complained of a pricking and foreign-body sensation in the oral cavity.
Twelve small, white spindle-shaped, bug-like organisms stuck in the mucous membrane of the tongue, cheek, and gingiva were completely removed, along with the affected mucosa. On the basis of their morphology and the presence of the sperm bag, the foreign bodies were identified as squid spermatophores.

Liquid oxygen.
I saw this on the in-flight magazine. I wonder if he’s just drinking dilute hydrogen peroxide? Well, it certainly can’t be compressed gas!
I know that I can use 3% hydrogen peroxide at a rate of 0.25ml/L in the event we need emergency oxygenation in anoxic conditions as can occur during pump failure or electrical outtage.

I watched this during the flight. Very unbelievable. Biologically impossible. And what are they going to eat in the middle of the dessert?
Plus I think they need a veterinarian to do the health checks prior to massive mobilisation of 10,000 fish and its water.
