Skillful Sushi Chef video shows oyugu hone preparation technique.
This one under the amazing category. Normally at a sushi restaurant, you will be able to see the large pieces of cut fish ready to be cut into thinner sashimi slices or put onto sushi. Occasionally you might encounter a sushi restaurant which does iki zukuri 生き作り (the preparation of sashimi from a live fish/shrimp/octopus)
In the following video clip from Japanese TV, a skilled chef cuts Shimadai (a kind of sea bream) sashimi pieces using the oyogu hone (swimming bones) technique without seemingly any negative effect to the live fish! This has to be seen to be believed.
