Two men went fishing in Kherson, but their fishing expedition took an unexpected turn. During their boat ride, one of them noticed a Russian drone overhead. The quick reaction and bravery of the fisherman resulted in an extraordinary scene that is now taking the internet by storm.

During a calm boat ride, the men were focused on fishing. Suddenly, their attention was drawn to an approaching object. Instead of panicking, one of the fishermen reacted swiftly — he grabbed one of the freshly caught fish and threw it at the drone.

The throw was remarkably accurate. The fish hit the drone, nearly knocking it down. The machine had trouble maintaining balance, and by the time it managed to do so, the fishermen were already speeding in the opposite direction. The video suggests that the drone operator did not attempt to pursue them, indicating that it was likely a reconnaissance drone rather than a combat one.

The recording of this unusual action was quickly shared online, gaining immense popularity. X (formerly Twitter) users are thrilled with the Ukrainian's reflexes and determination.

The video of the fisherman's daring action has won the hearts of internet users. Comments were praise for the man for his bravery and extraordinary reaction.

I love this brave fisherman — wrote a user.
This could be a new discipline at the Olympic Games — added another.

The entire incident has become a symbol of the courage and determination of ordinary people in the face of extraordinary challenges.
