    It's what happens when people operate their submarines with no respect for others. I'm guessing those hooligans were the ones who stole the light post too.

    Above video doesn't show . . .

    The YouTube ID for this video is ‘‘ hJXKUImTrYc ’’ which can be seen in the URL.

    I've changed the code in the quote from ‘‘ [YOUTUBE]https://www.youtube.com/hJXKUImTrYc[/YOUTUBE] ’’ to ‘‘ [YOUTUBE]hJXKUImTrYc[/YOUTUBE] ’’ which makes it work...

    I've recently started contemplating a sidewheeler with oversized rims relative to the floats and retractable forward wheels like they used to put on seaplanes like the Duck as a response to them not letting any new docks where I live.

    It would look a lot less "monster truck" and more yacht-y.

    Footage has emerged of the terrifying moment a 6m great white shark lunged at a dinghy carrying an international film crew off Stewart Island.

    Two people were on the inflatable craft filming for documentary Lair of the Megashark, which screened on Discovery Channel last year, when they had the frightening encounter.

    A voice can be heard on the video saying: "I don't think this is such a brilliant f****** idea you know.
