Sorry this is not what *eia is for.
"This channel is home to videos of people who seem to have a great desire to remove themselves from the gene pool or at least cause great bodily harm to themselves as they slowly work their way out of the gene pool."

I definitely understand that, however, I would counter that evolution works in both directions. This fish will have offspring which will continue to pass on the genes it has for pure awesomeness. Evolution is just as much about those organisms which are selected FOR as is it about those that are selected against. If the channel refuses to have both positive examples of evolution as negative, what is to differentiate it from the "fail" channel?

Just saying.

It had fish going in either direction. One of them was going the wrong way. One will reach the spawning ground, one will not, that sounds like evolution in action to me =)

I think the pertinent words in luxury_pie's comment are "videos of people".

Ooh I just ate salmon last night, it was delicious thank you for asking. This little guy didn't make it across the road because he was sad that I ate his friend :*(
