Over the years I've done a lot of stupid when on a dive but this vid is a keeper.

Before you kiss your wife, you have to update your relationship status on Facebook

Hi,

There is a very well known large yacht that has an Owner who likes to have his dive masters shoot a few tuna and take the fins off, this is so he can hand feed them to large sharks while they are still functioning but not able to swim off.

I wonder in the vid if that is a full shark suit worn by the "handler"or just the gauntlets, there is a quick shot at the end of someone in a full one.

Steel gloves are used in most meat-packing factories, full shark suits weigh a bloody ton to swim in; trust me, I found out the hard way.

Nose rubbing on sharks is a well known form of pacifying them, even Great Whites succum to the tender touch.

As to dodgy owners feeding fish, say bye-bye to Robert Maxwell. There goes one man who deserved to feed the fishes.

This is a good new channel on Youtube.

Listen to the new Pagani with a V12 AMG motor. Nice

I've only seen that car on British Top Gear and they tend to mask the engine noises with music, sadly!!!!! Id lay into it too much just to hear the sounds. If I owned one.

I like BMW's but I'm still Mercedes for daily driver status. Thinking of replacing my S430 with an SL65AMG, but also keep thinking maybe M5!!!!!!

I'm not a big fan of VW Bugs but this one looks OK to me.

A friend of mine did the conversion but on his VW Bus and it was a Porsche 911 engine. I forget the year on both, it was fast though.

Proof that money can't always buy class: LINK

SL AMG = Cool
Flat black = Cool
Bubblegum pink badging and neon glow + bright green carpet embroidery = so NOT cool!
