Anyone catch the antics of this idiot?

Goes swimming with Tiger Sharks only using a birdcage as protection.

Yes I did. His brother's reaction - something along the lines of "Yeah I thought he wimped out, but it's a good thing he didn't lose a leg" was also jaw-droppingly staggering.

And we're planning on having a shark cull. An idiot cull might be better...

I salute thee.

Was this the thread where I mentioned my friend was building a full size Lego car that runs entirely on air?

Project is complete now and his YouTube clip has 3.5 million views. Will post the video once I find the link

What a weird little earth tremor just now. More a jolt than a tremor.
 
Did not notice anything at all:confused:
 
Just a bit of film trivia, especially if your going to be dragged off by your wife or GF to see the Aussie film "The Dressmaker". (I'm told its the favourite film of the St Kilda FC, their players have seen the film at least twice already and have requested copies of the dresses - lets face it as they have, they will never make it as footballers with that club!)

The guy who plays Liam Hemsworth's dad in the film is in fact a 41 year Hawthorn FC member Mr. Stan Leman. Well done Stan!

Well its a "chick flick" - made for that market...so no I haven't seen it but I may very well sometime in the future as we should all support Aussie cinema.
 
A lot of the movie The Dressmaker was made around my area. The Dressmaker editor Jill Bilcock was born in the same place as me, Horsham. Jill Bilcock is in for an AACTA award. Be nice to see her win one..:) We had a special viewing here with quite a few actors attending the movie in one of our theatres here in October.:)

Yes, know Jill. She worked here on "Don't be afraid of the dark" and has an impressive resume including working with Baz Luhrmann on his projects; Tom Hanks in "Road to Perdition" (you can see the location of the famous gun battle of that movie in a NY Street in the rain at the Warner Bros LA back lot) and of course editior of Muriel's Wedding.

Horsham... I think they were there for at least 3 weeks. The dust and mud those trucks brought back!!!

More random trivia. One of my very very close friends John Tui played "Beast" in the movie Battleship.

On another note, he also played Bolg son of Azog in the Hobbit III

It is frightening isn't it? Years ago you may hear the odd story of stupidity, but it seems these days you hear a new one every day. People out there are turning the act of idiotic behaviour into an art form. Just take the drug problem at these rock festivals. A girl dies in Brisbane, the festival comes to Adelaide a few days later and still people are willing to pop pills without having a clue what's in them, and another one dies. The world is just becoming way too stupid for me.

Just a quick whinge. Why is it there are millions of devices out there that only require 1, 2, or 3 AA batteries, but you can only buy them in packs of 4? It pisses me off.
