Official Fish Slap: Sweemo CEO gets fish slapped by Texan

http://www.sweemo.com Wednesday the 17th of December 2008 saw Australian / American relations be put on edge by a Salmon wielding Texan with one thing on his mind; slapping aussie and CEO of Sweemo.com, Jay Nguyen in the face with a big wet fish. The fish slap was executed in Trafalgar Square in front of a large crowd of curious public and bemused tourists. Last week saw the completion of one of the most bizarre internet auctions of modern time. Jay Nguyen truly put his neck on the line in the name of charity to raise funds for the Marine Conservation Society. Jay offered bidders on Sweemo.com the chance to fish slap him in the face with a 15lb salmon. The auction was won by Chase Hoffman from Austin, Texas, who said "This guy seems nuts! I am certainly not coming all the way from Austin to give him a little tap!." Chase certainly didn't hold back with his slap as you can see in the video. Chase, who offered a winning bid of £401 said "All my work friends think this is hilarious, my boss has even been giving me tips on the most effective swinging techniques!"
