I know what you’re thinking , but yes, the photo is amazingly real… the yacht was being offloaded from a delivery cargo ship when … ‘whoops’ …. if you look at the top right corner, you’ll see a guy on there thinking ‘oh fuck’ … (at least that’s what i’d be thinking) – fortunately he was ok.
The fall ripped the running gear off the Carver. The boat hit bottom in about 45 feet of water, capsized and sank but the two crewmen survived with only minor injuries.
holy shit man…. if you wanna see some gnarly shit, click on the picture below. here’s the final outcome of the rattlesnake bite …. the other pictures are pretty intense. be warned.
here’s a synopsis of the story….
On July 21, 2002, just after my 13th birthday, I was bitten by a Northern Pacific rattlesnake (the snake was originally identified as a Western Diamondback rattlesnake, but that species is not found near Yosemite). I was located on a trail in a hiking area near Yosemite National Park, California. The bite occurred when I was sitting on a small boulder at a distance of 4.5 miles from the trailhead with my cabin group at camp. I had my arms dangling at my side, and a 5 foot long rattlesnake bit me in the middle of my left palm.
From this point, an amazing rescue took place, taking 4 hours to transport me the 4.5 miles to the trailhead. The camp director had previously called the hospital, and a helicopter was waiting at the trailhead. During the 30 minute helicopter ride I was going in and out of consciousness, having trouble keeping my eyes open. We arrived at the Modesto, CA hospital, where the doctor in the emergency room decided that my case was too severe to treat at that medical center. He told me this, which was the last thing I heard before going unconscious.
to everyone who keeps telling me i need to post more, here’s the reality of it. I go through phases in life (as does everyone) and my latest phase happens to be gambling. Shit, I don’t even care what I gamble on these days, just as long as there’s some sort of action. this greatly impacts my time posting on this blog. lol.
having said that, i apologize to everyone who keeps coming back only to see the same shit on the homepage day after day.
this week i promise to add some shit. in fact, i’m on it right now.
Hmm. i guess this is appropriate.

Some of the world’s richest people are reportedly using their private submarines to indulge in deep-sea sex in front of panoramic marine vistas.
But these aquatic trysts are sometimes interrupted by groups of voyeuristic dolphins, which excitedly tap on windows with their beaks.
One of the world’s top designers of luxury subs, US Submarines president Bruce Jones, told Bloomberg that dolphins were a problem for the amorous owners of his multi-million dollar vessels.

“Dolphins are easily excited when they sense people making love. They get jealous and bang their noses against the window,” Mr Jones said.
The best solution was to block the dolphins out with a set of curtains, he said.
Another top designer, Herve Jaubert of Dubai-based Exomos, told Bloomberg his clients wrestled “with how to conduct a deep-sea love affair in front of an observation window without creating an underwater paparazzi”.
Around 100 luxury submarines are believed to be submerged in the world’s oceans, but it is not known who owns the majority of these undersea palaces.
Russian billionaire Chelsea Football Club owner Roman Abramovich has a submarine, as does Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen.
The internet is playing a key role in the on-going psychological war waged on America by the Iraqi insurgence.
A series of mock-up Hollywood film posters – with a chilling message for US troops in Iraq – has started to appear on the web.
Shocking images of real US troops have been posted on Islamic websites.
The movie-style images – always in English -include instructions on how to distribute such posters onto western websites.
Extremists have put the posters on the internet in a bid to affect US morale.
They use real images of the ordeal facing American soldiers in Iraq.

Ben Carpenter got the ride of a lifetime when his electric wheelchair became lodged in the grille of a semitrailer and was accidentally pushed down a highway for several miles at about 50 mph.
His father, Donald Carpenter, was incredulous when police called to tell him his 21-year-old son was OK after the wild ride.
How does this shit happen anyway? Thanks Dustin for sending me the story.
Some amateur scientist has captured a video of what appears to be the Lochness monster. The video shows a large wake moving in the water at a fairly high rate of speed. I’m sure it could be anything, but you never know….
