I can't see the vid Coastie.

 

[twocorgis]

Yep. Shows the ad and not the video. Says something about "international copyrights" :roll:

 

[Jeff]

Same problem, ads run fine, article blocked.


Don't suppose it's this article about a KIwi chick paralyzed by a hickey???

Nope , can't see it here on the East Coast either. Just the ads :x

 

[coastie99]

Bollocks !! :evil: :evil:

The item showed a couple of fishing boats attempting an entrance to the Greymouth harbour during a recent storm. Serious sphincter-tightening stuff !

An abridged version appeared in a Reuters report on Ewetube ........ that's gone too !

Sorry about that folks.

At age 44 ??

That's appalling behaviour ! And while she was watching tele. How inconsiderate !

 

[Dr. Spivey]

That one works, Coastie. Brave men they are. :shock:

Really. Waste of a good hickey. :roll:

Doc., local opinion has it that they were bloody idiots !!

 

[GuildFS4612CE]

Guess no intelligence tests are required to be a fisherman. :shock:

They say luck favors the brave and heaven helps the fool, so who knows. Made for good conversation at the local pub, I'm sure. :wink:

I don't envy these folks that do this for a living one bit. Some times you do what you have to do for reasons that we may not know.

Cap'nJuan posted a similar type event in an area of Florida that cost a sailor his life.

From my experience, these types of fisherman are seldom fools.

 

[bluesypicky]

Don't know if they were dumb or brave, but "lucky" seems about right.....

 

[taabru45]

Saw that on the news, and thought when the boat was out of sight, it was a goner...what do they pay those guys? :shock:

Should have pointed out ....... these guys are not locals. First time over the bar.
