Record $4.8 million bluefin tuna sold in Tokyo

A 243-kilogram bluefin tuna sold for a record $4.8 million at a Tokyo fish market. Kyoshi Kimura, operator of a popular sushi chain known as the 'tuna king', purchased the fish at the new year's auction, where the year's first tuna is believed to bring good luck. The multi-million dollar fish was sliced up and served to customers at his restaurants shortly after the auction.
