Schnapps!!! I got this picture and thought it was fucking real!!! It blew my mind that a Great White Shark was jumpiing out of the water, and the dude climbing up roper ladder to the helicopter was getting chomped...

Dunno if you have received the pic in email titled "And You think You're having a bad day at work...."

Read below...

Pfff. That pic screems fake.

1 - There are no Great White sharks in San Francisco.
2 - The shadows on the helicopter don't match those on the shark.
3 - The US government didn't start feeding POWS from Afghanistan to the sea life until last month... :p

Plus, if you get it in your email, chances are, even if it's from someone you know, it's spammy spam spam.

Jason,

Did you take the time to read the link? :rolleyes: I was stating that when I got an email w/ the photo that I thought it was real. I did some researching and well.... you'll see the article and disclaimer from the National Geographic site. LOL!! So yeah, I know that it isn't real :D

Namaste,

Yeah, he just wanted to make sure you knew it wasn't the truth...

Because we can't have a bunch of people walking around thinking that sharks eat people.

This reminds me of my favorite movie, Deep Blue Sea. It had a really thick plot that you could just sink your teeth into and relate with. I felt a certain bond with L.L. Cool J's character. The theme in that movie also really had me doing some heavy thinking for a few days after that and man oh man, you are really left with a certain "who am I in this great big world??" sense when you finish it.
