This has gotta be one of the worst ways to die I have ever heard……
As reported in The Straits Times (Singapore), a vietnamese worker and two colleagues who went to his aid suffocated to death inside a vat of fish sauce, police and news reports said on Monday.
The accident happened Saturday at a fish sauce plant in Cam Ranh township of coastal Khanh Hoa province.
One worker got into trouble after climbing in to fix a pipe, prompting his co-workers to try to rescue him, the Nong Nghiep (Agriculture) Vietnam newspaper reported.
All three died on the spot, it said.
Police were still investigating the deaths, the policeman told AFP.
Vietnamese fish sauce, a widely-used condiment, is made from a mix of anchovies and salt which is left to distil for more than a year in three-metre-high (10-feet-high) wooden vats.{{/linkXL}}
