A FLYING marlin stabbed him in the shoulder and almost killed his brother, but Nathan Peck thinks it's a helluva story.
Peck, his brother Quentin and their companion Andrew Sprott were traveling about 40 km on a 6 m inflatable boat 20 miles off the coast at Wooli when the marlin hit.
"The marlin jumped directly over the boat and as if a bowling ball had just come out," Nathan told News Corp.
"We barely saw the fish arrive, it weighed about 100 kg and we probably collided by traveling 40 km in the other direction.
"I was driving, the ticket was crossing my shoulder, when it happened to my brother, he was caught off guard and he wiped the weight of the fish a hundred pounds.
"He snatched the tendon from his hand, dropped it to the back of the boat and crashed into the gang support.
"I thought my brother was almost dead.
Nathan said that he had not realized that he had been harbaded by the fish beak.
"Fortunately, because we wore a combination, my brother did not lose a lot of blood," he said.
"Actually, I did not know it had gone through, but we could not breathe.
"It took me about 3-4 minutes to catch my breath, but I thought Quentin was almost killed."
Sprott, standing to the left of the boat, was completely spared by the flying fish.
He took the boat back and brought it back to Wooli.
Quentin, suffering from broken ribs, a torn tendon in the arm and other injuries, was flown to Coffs Harbor and then back to the Royal North Shore Hospital.
The surgeons operated on her hand this morning.
"You will never hear another story like this," Nathan said.
"The fact that we both did well is incredible, it could have been a lot worse."
