Thousands of dead herring have been discovered washed up on a north Norwegian beach - prompting Doomsday predictors to hail it as another sign the world is set to end.
More than 20 tonnes of the fish is currently carpeting the beach of Kvaenes, in Nordreisa, with experts views differing on how they have come to be there. One thing is for sure, it will provide welcome ammunition to those believing the Mayan prophecy that 2012 will bring the end of Earth.
Jan-Petter Jorgensen, 44, was walking with his dog Molly when he found the stinky haul.



He said: 'People say that something similar happened in the 80s. Maybe the fish have been caught in a deprived oxygen environment, and then died of fresh water?'
Experts have said the school could have been trapped by tidal waters after predatory fish - such as coalfish - chased them towards the shoreline.
Another theory is that the fish were washed ashore during a recent storm, or trapped in shallow waters and affected by freshwater from a river that flows into the bay.
Jens Christian Holst, of the Institute of Marine Research, said several factors could have come together at once. And he said he hoped they would be able to conduct tests on the dead fish to see if they had died of a disease.

this reminds me of a similar event i read about with lots of dead penguins (or another type of sea bird) on a beach in south america either in 2010 or 2011

Herring is off the menu.

Maybe it's all that mercury from the sunken WWII German Sub that's killing them?

Did a lot of research back when a ton of birds dropped and a ton of fish dropped... scientifically speaking this happens every once in a while and doesn't signify that it is a sign of doomsday. People are just paranoid. It could be hundreds of reasons.
