The aquatic monster looks at the earthquake and the Japanese for more than two centuries

The Japanese should not continue to watch the giant fish in the deep sea to predict earthquakes as more than two centuries ago, according to the study.

Experts say seeing fish in the deep sea is not a sign of disaster , as is commonly believed by Japanese people. They compared records of encounters of oarfish fish such as fishing nets, with earthquake records for 90 years, according to the Guardian.

They did not find any connection between this 'water monster' and the big earthquake.

Specifically, since 1928 there have been 363 occurrences of paddle fish and 221 earthquakes of 6 degrees or more, but only once the earthquake occurred within 30 days and within a radius of 100 km of the appearance of paddle fish .

The above-said concept originated from Shokoku Rijin Dana , a collection of stories of the period of the 18th century publication, in which the oars and earthquakes have a connection.

Experts have guessed that the undersea fish moved to shallow waters when they sensed the change in electromagnetic waves due to the tectonic movement of the Earth's crust, making the concept of paddle fish signaling a spreading point. .

The fact that paddle fish appeared on the coast earlier this year has led some people to fear the earthquake.

Although Japan's earthquake early warning system often gives people many seconds to find cover before an earthquake occurs, there is currently no effective method to predict the movement of the Earth's crust.

Some experts say that 70-80% of the possibility that a large Japanese coast will experience catastrophic earthquakes in the next 30 years.

The worst scenario is 230,000 deaths - more than 10 times the casualties of the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami in the northeastern region.
