When a four-year-old boy won a tiny goldfish at a fairground, no one expected it to live for very long,?the Daily Mail?reported. But Paul Palmer is now 28 years old, and the one-inch tiddler he brought home from Newcastle's Hoppings fair is still alive and well.
Sharky has just celebrated his 24th birthday.
What's more, one goldfish year is equal to five human years, meaning Sharky has been around for the equivalent of a century.
Palmer said: "He's had a charmed life because mum actually put him down the toilet once thinking he was dead but he swam back up the U-bend."
