    Man, I would be paddling like my life depended on it to get the **** out of dodge!

    Edit: Coming to think of it, my life would depend on it.

    Watch the surfer's reaction...You can see him turn his head as if to say "What was that?"

    Those dumb a**** lay themselves out like a shrimp tempura on a sushi boat every time they paddle out. I'd be the only out there with a 9mm strapped on.

        I had an experience kind of like that...I was driving on a highway through Wyoming and a deer ran into the road. I hit the brakes and right when I was about to hit it, it reared up on it's back legs and did a "pirouette" on it's back legs. Had it not done this, I would have hit its front end. That deer had some moves.

        Also, where I live now there are plenty of elk. I swear I've seen more than a few of them look both ways before crossing the street.

          I like that about the Elk, maybe someone could get them to talk to the deer.
          I know what you're saying about the deer having some moves.
          Last summer I was riding my bike on a back road when I went around a corner there was a deer in the road and two more ready to cross the road.
          One was in the air jumping the drainage ditch. I pulled in the clutch and cracked the throttle (I do have rather loud pipes on the bike). The deer in the road split and I swear the one jumping the ditch did an about face in the air and landed back on the other side of the ditch.
          I know this vid is off topic, but it's still funny as hell and shows who the real tough guys in the woods are:rolleyes:

        That actually happens all the time here in farm country. Deer really dislike running into vehicles so they naturally leap them. When they do you can see all their muscles coiled and releasing. Pretty amazing site actually to have take place right in front of your windshield.

        When I was a kid my Dad went to work and came back a few hours later with his face covered in blood and glass shards. Luckily for him he wore glasses. The glass from the shattered windshield etched his bifocals so bad he had to throw them away. If he hadn't been wearing glasses he would have been blinded.

        The deer that tried to clear his car crashed into the top of the driverside windshield. It's hind legs took off the drivers side exterior door handle and also the upholstry on the drivers seat back behind my Dad's head.

        The impact caved in the roof at the d-side 'A' pillar.

        Scratch one nice 1952 Chevy...

          Which gives you a good idea on how tough deer really are.

          I have a ton of farms and forests around me. The deer population is to the point where I won't ride my bike after dark anymore unless I absolutely have to.
          Like Ron White said, if you want to shot a deer, slow the bullet down to 55mph and put a headlight on it.

            I live smack in the middle of deer country. I have seen as many a 17 deer standing in my front yard at one time eating all the plants and flowers.

            If the HOA around here allowed us to shoot at deer everybody's house siding would look like a spaghetti strainer.

              I Don't get that many in my yard, yet.
              I'm fortunate that there is hunting allowed close enough to control the herds, but far enough away not to be a problem.
              In the warm months I'll see a couple in the yard.
              A few years ago when two of my girls where living here, a doe came right up to the screen window in the dining room. They where arguing in there and as I wlked out to end it I saw the deer with her nose pressed against the screen. I told the girls to shut up they where annoying the neighbors and pointed at the window.

              Does the HOA allow slingshots?

      It's only fun if you're NOT in the water. A couple years some shark related friends called "tintureira" show up in a local surf spot, small ones, probably 3-5 feet long and let me tell you:

      You'll **** your pants in a nanosecond when you see that fin a couple meters from you.



      Oh and this ^^ is a tintureira, quite common over Portugal coastline.
