A gigantic catfish that is huge enough to swallow a whole human was caught in Italy.

With almost 9 feet and 127 kilograms, the catfish was captured by Dino and Dario Ferrari.

The twin brothers caught the catfish in February 19. Based on the post of Sportex Italia, the brothers used only a rold and line to capture the huge catfish.

Being dubbed by the Italian Media, "The Monster of the Po River" took more than 40 minutes before they could finally get a hand of the giant creature.

They took a photo with the giant catfish and then weighed out the giant creature and after that they released it back to the river where it belongs.

The fish was believed to be somewhere around 30 years old based on the weight and size of it.
