The fail is dependent on what the sharks intent was. If he was trying to boost his buddy out of the water for a fun flight and splash-down, everybody wins...

I think I'll go with that mental image instead of the likely reality. Buddy fish playtime is way less sad than seal-for-dinner.

Years ago I was walking along the shoreline at Vatnsnes, watching a bunch of seals who had set up a little colony there. Suddenly there was a bunch of spray and noise and frantically gallumphing pinnipeds, and when it all cleared away there was one-half less seal and one large orca sitting there partway up on the beach, maybe thirty feet away from me. I said good morning or something like that to it, and it sort of did this wiggle flop thing backwards back into the water and disappeared. I suppose it wasn't feeling particularly sociable that day.

I've seen film of that, I can't imagine being that close when the deal goes down... :shock:

I do my usual forum check after a nap, but before I'm completely awake, and see...that.

Thanks, thanks a lot.
Yanno how some people have Angels/Devils for a conscience? I have a Dark Elf ShadowKnight and a Half Elf Ranger for mine. The really bad part is when they agree on something.

Beaver butts smell like vanilla.

And beaver anal glands is used for just that purpose.

Dunno what seal butts smell like.

He might have gottten away from that one bite, but unless he can swim really, really fast, I'm betting the shark got his second chance, and chances are he didn't miss, the second time around... :roll:

I'm short, sweet, and quiet until provoked. Then it's this(listen to it, video is crappy), followed by me channeling this.
Crowds mysteriously part, idiots amazingly shut up, and if you're next in line for customer service, you're quick and to the point after hearing me use it.
My "sis" and sister both said I had a natural Mommy voice years before becoming one.
At the ren faire, I once used it as a joke to the next person in line at "tomato justice"...
"Next Victim!"
The guy getting fruit tossed at him asked if I wanted a job. I replied that it would require me to like people. He was remarkably silent for a minute.
