Locals in Thailand fear they are on the brink of a natural disaster after they reeled in a doomsday fish which carries a devastating superstition.

Fishermen from Satun Province in Thailand, were left stunned after they picked up the rare harbinger oarfish in the Andaman Sea reportedly on January 3, days after Japan was rocked by a deadly earthquake.

The discovery isn't one to be celebrated as a local legend believes that if the fish is found in shallow waters, then an earthquake or even a tsunami is imminent.
