Silver Sea poses a mystery: millions of fish escape from the water. In the Philippine province of Saranggani, tons of live fish washed up on the beach at the beginning of January.

The cause of the spectacular fish escape is not yet known. It is speculated that an earthquake or seaquake could be the trigger. Some locals interpret the abundance of fish as a blessing and a good omen for the year ahead. Older residents of the province would warn of an impending disaster or catastrophe based on such events.
