In the department of "you've got to see it to believe it," a bizarre picture recently taken shows a train passenger carrying a full fish tank with him as he travels — and it was plugged into an outlet to power the air filter throughout the train ride.

The man appeared to be balancing the tank on a folding table while traveling on the East Coast Main Line in the U.K. this summer.
