This video shows what happens to the vigorous, majestic tuna, after they are captured. It's a little less humane than what happens in your local slaugherhouse but its compelling viewing.

  • It's 1 of the method to kill tuna which is destroying the brain. Other method is cutting the gills to bleed fast.

    It's very necessary to do that to the tuna species because those species of fish build up adrenaline & histamine in their body as they fight. Longer the blood & temperature is maintained in their body, higher chance of the toxic build up which leads to scombroid poisoning.

  • I like how nobody gets the real reason why Green Peace made this vid. It's not becuse of fish torture, it is becuse Japan is overfishing valuable tuna stocks in other countries waters with no regard for international laws and regulations...

    Do research on it, It's the simple truth...

  • People have to eat. Plain and simple. If you wanna get to the root of the problem then think about our over populating the earth. Control that and everything else will take care of itself.

  • @Desadesh Does 95% of tuna populations depleted from 1975-2011 ring a bell you thick scum?, that was just a very lucky catch.

  • OK, Greenpeace. we have all seen the video now. but what happened nothing? the tuna fleets are still out there. My tip: Be more activists, less bureaucrats.

  • @popost22 if global warming is man caused then WHAT CAN WE DO other than stop all industry and revert to the DARK AGES

  • i like how they think i give a shit

    hell if you eat the tuna then its all good

  • @mickonlyforu its innards get forced out the mouth due to the high pressure of water clearing out the blood

  • i like the noise it makes at 00:43

  • I eat it but I only eat dolphin friendly basically means pole caught
