Original Note:
Marlin are among the fastest fish, but speeds are often wildly exaggerated, such as the claimed speed of 132 km/h (82 mph) at the end of the video. Recent research suggests a burst speed of 36 kilometres per hour (22 mph) is near the maximum rate. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_marlin https://journals.biologists.com/bio/article/5/10/1415/1485/Maximum-swimming-speeds-of-sailfish-and-three
