Such incidents are rare because firstly the sea is no one's friend and secondly no fisherman has enough resources to find things that will change his destiny.
But sometimes it happens that the lucky hunters wait for the fish but they find something rare in their hands which makes their hair stand on end and they are counted among the rich.
Similarly, when a poor Thai fisherman went to sea to hunt on a large scale, one of them, a 20-year-old man, caught sight of a strange object on a hill (island) in the sea.
The young man picked it up, put it in the boat, and carried it ashore. The fisherman knew that what he found in the sea was precious and rare.
After coming ashore, the fisherman realized that the rare thing he found was actually whale vomiting. As the news spread, shoppers flocked to the beach and began bidding to buy "this filth of the stomach."
The young fisherman's name is Chiller Machai Mahapan. He said he found vomiting off the coast of Samela, which weighed up to 7kg and sold for more than 210,000 British pounds (Rs. 459.42 million).
According to experts, the whale bulb (vomit pile) that the fisherman found is the second largest piece found in a month. Whale vomit is bought by perfume companies so they can use it in their perfumes.
