Russian Fisherman Posts Terrifying Creatures of the Deep Sea

Roman Fedortsov is a fisherman from Russia who posts photos of his catches on the internet. People find his photos terrifying, but can’t stop following him. He currently has over 50,000 followers on Instagram and nearly 150,000 on Twitter.

“I’m 39 and have been working onboard trawlers for seventeen years,” Roman says. “I live in Murmansk, Russia. It is a big port, and that’s why I enrolled in the Marine University after school. My specialization has a lot to do with fishing technology. I know how to prepare fish for freezing and further delivery to the customer.”

On their fishing trips, Roman and his colleagues work in six-hour shifts, then rest for six hours. “We are to catch commercial fish such as Cod, Haddock, Halibut, Redfish, Herring, Mackerel, and so on,” he says. “The most extreme fish I have ever caught are Frilled Shark, Rabbitfish, Big Sunfish, Angler, Stoplight Loosejaw…”

“During my watch, I work at the fish factory. I’m responsible for processing the fish, so I have to control other seamen while they’re working, too.”
