(VG Web Edition) Erika Scheldt (24) escaped from toxic water fishes, and stumbled over his life Easter characters.

- I thought at first that it just looked like a bearded, homeless man, says Erika Scheldt to IslandPacket.com.

On Monday, the day after Jesus according to the Bible rode into Jerusalem and was greeted with palm leaves for nearly 2,000 years ago, she and her daughter on the beach in Charleston, South Carolina.

They were warned that there was barbed rays close to the beach. When they went out of the water they saw one of the most poisonous fish be washed up on shore. Scheldt says she saw his face away.

- I would not say anything to people who passed by, because they might come to think that I was strange, she tells the local paper.

Still, it was not until she uploaded the pictures on the website "Instagram" that she realized that it could be about a Jesus-fish.

- One of my friends said "that's Jesus," and I just "oh my god, you're right," she says.

Saw Jesus in a toast

It is not uncommon for Americans find what they believe are pictures of Jesus, Virgin Mary, Buddha, or the devil in various everyday objects. An American company has as well started making toasters that roast Jesus into each slice.

No later than on Ash Wednesday, 22 February this year, discovered a man in the state of New Mexico, a picture of Jesus on a tortilla.

Scheldt, who is Catholic, will not share any theories about what it might mean that Christ will be shown on the back of the fix. But she thinks the circumstances of the discovery is exciting:

- It's interesting, now that it's Easter. Also it is a very beautiful picture, on the back of such a dangerous thing, she says to local newspaper in Charleston, which also has the nickname "The Holy City".

Scheldt is originally from the city of Nashville, which, among much else is known for his "Nun Bun". It's a cinnamon bun that has a striking resemblance to Mother Theresa. It has been missing since it was stolen in 2005.

- Random pattern

The image has created quite a lot of attention in the United States, and gone round on most major sites in the country. The researcher Jim Underdown, who works at the Center for Inquiry in Los Angeles, told the online newspaper Huffington Post that people tend to find meaning in random pattern:

- It's actually a word for it, "pariedolia", which means finding a few patterns which actually is just noise.

It remains to see if spike wheel can take the title as the "Jesus fish" from Tilapiaen. It should have been two such fishes and five loaves that Jesus fed five thousand people at the Sea of ​​Galilee.

Stingrays are widespread in tropical coastal areas. They can be dangerous because of the sharp sting they have behind the tail. There was a spike stingray that killed natural celebrity Steve "Crocodile-Steve" Irwin.

There is a technical term for seeing faces like that, but I can't remember it.

*facepalm*

Why is it always the Americans that are seeing Jesus in random bullshit?  I was soooo hoping that since this was a Norwegian article, it happened in Norway.  I even thought "Erika; that sounds kind of Scandinavian...."  Then I saw she's from Nashvile, home of the "Nun Bun" (missing since 2005.  They have been "missing" a freaking cinnamon bun for 7 years now.)

Americans aren't known for being the sharpest tool in the box.

How appropo, even if it is the wrong type of fish.  Unfortunately, that's not Jesus, that's my Uncle Dewey again who has one of those faces that looks like any weird thing.

[Asmodean]

Looks slightly drunk too, wouldn't you say..?  ???

[Ihateyoumike]

My brother and I once found jesus in the carpet. We also found a horse, and mya Angelou, amongst other things.

But then again, we were very very high.

And they were gone the next morning. Dammit.

Yes.  Of course, if it is Uncle Dewey the only surprise is that there isn't also an image of a 6-pack on that ray.
