Comet: The Smartest Fish In The World (VIDEO)

Introducing Comet the Goldfish, who's currently on track to become the smartest fish in the world.

Comet can play football, basketball, limbo, play fetch, and even slalom around a series of poles.

According to the Daily Mail:

Dr Pomerleau already holds the official world record for having the fish with the largest repertoire of tricks, with a three year-old calico fantail named Albert Einstein.

But four inch long Comet has already learnt Albert's array of tricks and is set to take the crown of the world's most intelligent goldfish.

Jealous? Want your own super-fish?

Dr Pomerleau, from Los Angeles, California, has teamed up with pet product firm R2 Solutions to design a special kit to help people train their fish.

The kit features an array of training tools including goal posts, slalom poles and tunnels for your pet to swim through, as well as an instructional DVD.

R2 Solution president Russ Ronat said: "When people see the tricks, after the initial disbelief, they want to learn how its done and teach their own fish too.

Check out the video of Comet and the training kit below.

Y'know what? I don't come here just for the good food, or the camraderie, or the beer and drinks during happy hour. Nope, ... come here sometimes just for a laugh and a giggle, and instructions on how to train my goldfish in my pond, ... or just to read about the other stuff that will still exist after the election, ... no matter who wins.

I'd ride a bike, I s'pose, if I knew a guy could help me fix it when it wasn't workin' right, ... and wouldn't make fun o' my politics. If you hear of a guy like that, that takes in different knds'a ideas, even if they aren't his, ... would ya let me know please?

'Cause I'll buy him a beer, right here and right now, ... just because he thinks different than I do. And that's a promise from where I come from.

I don't know anyone who could fix a bike for you mate. I don't own one and never fixed one. My moniker is a tip of the hat to the Monty Python skit. I did come across a fellow a few weeks ago who refurbished rickshaws but he would bore you to tears discussing Proust and Kierkegaard.

Maybe comet should take Obamas place, no one would know.

It's nice that you could take time out from your Mensa meetings to leave a comment here.

Now, now, BicycleRepairman; you should be proud of the fact that HuffingtonPost provides a forum even for semi-literate trolls.
