River Monsters — S03E05 — Electric Executioner

00:00:03 Wade: I'm Jeremy Wade, biologist and monster wrangler.

00:01:52 but never three people at once.

00:03:46 Yep.

00:05:13 This is the first spotted river ray I've ever caught.

00:06:53 but this area is unfamiliar to me,

00:08:50 Didn't want to be number four... The fourth victim."

00:10:18 A monster said to have mythical powers

00:12:13 He tells me that the grim search for the three bodies

00:14:14 make it unlike any fish I've gone after before.

00:15:59 I would normally try to apprehend my suspect

00:17:33 so I'll be safe while bringing it in.

00:19:03 so it can recover before I let it go.

00:20:52 So, this voltage is just for a very short while...

00:22:15 No problems.

00:24:18 Milton tells me it's full of a toothy fish called trahira,

00:25:56 Wade: This is a masoom.

00:27:46 Hadn't caught anything.

00:29:23 There was a 100% positive I.D.

00:31:24 Perfect for small ponds like this

00:33:06 It was on a night like this when, according to Tupi legend,

00:35:02 about a tiny pool right in the middle of cattle pasture.

00:36:48 An eel this size can deliver a shock of 650 volts.

00:38:38 It's the last place you'd expect to find a river monster,

00:40:14 Who knows where I'll find one next?
