A remora fish latched onto a woman

The remora is a marine fish with an adhesive disc on its head, which it uses to attach itself to larger animals and objects. It typically attaches itself to cetaceans, sharks, and dolphins, using them for transportation and protection.

This video captured a rare instance of a remora attaching itself to a human. The process reportedly causes no pain or injury.

Remoras inhabit temperate and tropical seas and use this strategy to conserve energy and navigate.
