    Dirty water

    Just wait until you see the Hookah diver at @14 seconds how the water stayed clear I will never know but sure as hell I reckon he filled the pants section with some lumpy bits.
    I for one would have baled up to the surface but thinking about that staying low ain't gunna attract a mouthful of death scooting after you to the surface.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    The best (funniest) had to be the Chinese lady going for the personal injury lawsuit. She just would NOT give up.

    Thanks for the explanation. I was really wondering what the heck she was doing there.

    I was more interested in the rather large White Pointer that just nudges the divers head I mean lets face it next to the Mako shark which is a total idiot of the sea apt to leaping into boats which happened near Bunbury West Au a fair while ago the shark destroyed the tinnie totally it actually bit through the steel fuel tank one guy jumped onto the bow and the other 2 into the drink which was not a sound idea.
    Anyway that Great White just appearing out of the murk like that also it was no small fry shark I reckon at least 4 - 4.5 meters in length would have snacked on him easily but what of the camera person who was a bit higher up one tail flick and your saying hello to a mouthful of very sharp teeth Mrs Marsh (Colgate Ad.)

    I think I might have coloured the water with a tinge of brown in such a situation.
    I'm a very good swimmer and like to dive, but somehow the idea of a shark always gives me the shivers, even if I know there are none and am in quiet and relatively shallow waters.
    It's just an instinctive thing.
    I keep doing what I'm doing, but I really feel a cold blade inside.
