"Straight from hell": Creepy fish shocks hikers in remote Australian region (video)

While walking along the mudflats in the remote Pilbara region of Australia, a group of hikers encountered an extremely creepy looking fish in a small hole in the ground

The creature that emerges from the ground looks like it swam up from the ninth circle of Hell. The group lowers a pole into the water to see how the fish will react, and it immediately snaps at the pole with its sharp teeth.

Many people in the comments say this is a Jawfish, while others claim it's a Stargazer. Whatever kind of this fish is, I wouldn't even touch it with a long pole, like the people in the video did. 

This video has convinced me to never step foot in any mudflats as long as I live.
