A goldfish had reportedly survived for seven hours outside its tank when it was presumed dead by its owner.
According to The Mirror, Mr Fish was wrapped in tissue paper and placed in a dry bath for a later burial when 44-year-old owner Carol Norris found its presumed-dead body on Saturday morning.
However, when she returned that afternoon to her home in Waterbeach, Cambridge, the 13-year-old goldfish flipped in her hand, prompting her and 40-year-old partner Darren Bradnick to place him - wedged upright - in his bowl.
Norris said: "When I picked him up the tissue was stuck to him. I screamed when he flipped in my hand."
Bradnick added: "He's a miracle. It's just lucky Carol didn't flush him down the loo."
Last August, a goldfish in North Yorkshire survived for a similar length of time behind a fluff-covered dresser after leaping out of its bowl.
