Plan B Forum

Although her body has a similarity in overall configuration to a spider, her aerodynamic attributes and weight distribution apportioning render her unable to successfully complete the maneuver she attempted to undertake.

Four more appendages would have proven helpful. I wonder if she threw her jacket down as a landing pad.

I found that video to be rappellant.

She didn't rappel so much as plummet. I am reminded of flying sheep.

"Of course, it was a lot funnier when they added the sound effects.  'Boink, boink, boink, boink, doi-oi-oi-oing'!"

-"BB"-

No baby? No helmet? What was she thinking?

I'm saying nothing...

It hasn't surfaced but there has GOT to be security video of my going over a fence, losing it on the far side and plummeting to the Earth (not quite from that high). Fortunately, my chin broke my fall. I'd love to see the footage.

I'm just glad that no one filmed my acrobatic camera smashing escapade the other day.

Oh, since that, my very expensive Canon ultra-wide-angle lens has also died.

Luckily, what with me being a "kept man", Hen has agreed to buy me another...

One of the advantages of rural-ish life? Glad it was only the camera that was injured. Shutter to think what we would do without you here.

Ouch!!

Was that due to a separate exhibition of your al fresco floor exercise skills or the same incident? Ouch. Those lenses can be $$$ (or £££ if you prefer) and it's one reason photographers tend to upgrade with the same body model - the lenses they have accumulated over the life of the old camera will fit the new body.

so its wrong one camera smashed Capitol by citizens peaceful but when a liberal brakes tow camera its oK is that it!

Same incident, delayed result.

Yep, indeed. I didn't upgrade, I sort of sideways graded, I got a newer model, which has better spec than my old 5DIII, but, in the hierarchy of Canon models, is a lesser one, (if that makes sense??) Just got a new ultra-wide-angle lens to go with it...
