reason #459685607 why we're better off in front of our computers

A Florida woman was jet skiing down the Suwannee River (yes, that river) on Thursday when a fish jumped out of the water, knocking her unconscious, lacerating her spleen and shearing off four fingers.

This is the fish. Eep. However, helpfully, the boyfriend provided a sense of SCALE.

I may never sleep again.

Well, they come to the river to spawn, and I'd snap at a jet ski if it interrupted me. The sound probably doesn't help, but it also likely agitates them, and animals don't seem to care much about size when defending their breeding grounds. Seriously though, sharks notwithstanding, NO FISH SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO THAT MUCH DAMAGE.
