A Chinese man got a fish hook stuck in his tongue while eating fish at a restaurant.
Mr Pei, of Shanghai city, thought his tongue had been pierced by a bone at first.
"I tried to take the bone out, but I felt metal with my tongue, and had blood all over my hand," he said.
He was taken to a nearby hospital where doctors removed a 1cm hook from his tongue.
The restaurant has agreed to pay an undisclosed amount of compensation to Mr Pei.
