Can't the guy in the vid see that he is tormenting the fish and might be even hurting it

It keeps coming back to him, yet doesn't appear to be displaying any aggressive behavior (flaring, biting, agitated/cautious movement, etc.), so I disagree. Most likely, it just expects food and doesn't mind having to put up with that stuff to get fed.

I think this has been posted on here before though. I know I've seen it, but that could just be from browsing youtube... And I am pretty certain that it is a repost on youtube, as well.

Wow well theres so many terrible things I can only name a few as I'd be here for ever: 1 the fish would not be chucked in the wild and could be hurt when It crashes onto the surface of the water, 2 the guy could be nocking its scales off, 3 to me it seems like the fish is swimming back agressively and is trying to attack the guy but before the fish has a chance to attack him the guy picks him up

Could you provide a point in the video that the fish shows gill flaring etc. correct me if I'm wrong but don't fish jump out of the water on the wild.

Some species but I doubt a midas/red devil would be jumping out of the water frequently

Oh and also the fishes slime coat

But if it didn't like it why would it keep going back? It is a big pond and doesn't have to go by that guy. IMO I think it's lonely haha, don't see anything else in there.
