Not exactly a Youtube "gem" (turn off the sound), but I'm impressed at how comfortable these Wisconsin kids are so high off the ground!
I'd previously thought security was pretty tight on the bridge since 911, but apparently it's not.

So they were teasing the sea lion? Glad it wasn't worse, but nothing good ever comes from teasing wild animals.
I keep tell the spouse to not wave her hand like she's going to feed the ducks. Going to be a HitchDuck movie ending one of these days.

Munge, you recognize what's happening a lot better than the fools in the video. It was taken in a Vancouver, BC suburb, where people were feeding the sea lion bread from the dock.
The Province news quotes an aquarium mammal trainer; "...the video appears to show the sea lion getting increasingly frustrated as the feeding stops. You saw him kind of initially lunge out of the water and give a little huff. That’s what we would call an aggressive precursor,” she explained. “So he’s letting the people know that he’s starting to get frustrated. And in that situation, the people should have backed off right away.”

Um, was that Chuck Norris on the motorcycle? I mean, he kicked that sedan pretty much into oblivion.

hey there, say... i liked the cow and cow-bell... :)
also, good to hear some 'teaching' came out of the share, about the little girl and sea-lion... (animal frustrations, etc) ... awful stuff, but good for folks to learn by...
