Iran: Is it raining fish in Iran? A video showing many fish appearing to fall from the sky is going viral on social media. It comes from a rare phenomenon that took place in the Yasuj area of the region on May 5. While appeared like the fish landed on the streets during a heavy downpour, that wasn't the real case. It was reportedly caused by a tornado that tossed these aquatic lives from the sea to the land, leaving them struggling to survive and being caught by humans.

The sad thing about the video was that many fish were thrown off water alive. They were seen trying to jump only to never know that they can't get back to the sea before their last breath. No sooner, they fell lifeless making the streets of Iran their death beds.

The clip also noted people catching or collecting the fish and purportedly taking them home. Local residents seemed to happy to get free fish from their streets as they filmed themselves holding the fish in their hand.

According to reports, the rare incident is attributed to severe conditions, especially noting the formation of tornados and sea storms due to changes in temperature and humidity.

The meteorological concept is said to mentions in the book titled 'It's raining fish and spiders' alongside some claiming its mention in the Holy Bible.
