    AND YOU THINK YOUR HAVING A BAD DAY AT WORK !!

    Although this looks like a picture taken from a Hollywood movie, it is in fact a real photo, taken near the South African coast during a military exercise by the British Navy.

    It has been nominated by Geo as "THE photo of the year".

    Just thinking this is probablt more a humanities/after hours thing... its not a joke so not humour but it was all i could think of at the time!

    Its a fake. Some one i showed it to said he saw it in a newspaper in Scotland.

    Also the picture appears to be a fresh water area . The bridge is made outta iron or steel or something. Dont they use concrete for saltwater bridges as metal erodes to quickly?

    That shark aint a freshwater animal :P

    Saruman, I couldn't see that picture on the site.

    Handy one for ya in future, if you need a web page translated.
    Go to Google. Enter the address into the search box and then choose translate when it finds it. Very good for reading the articles in Japanese Playboy :)

    For the South African coast, it looks likes the Golden Gate Bridge to me in the background. Still a great picture, whether it's doctored or not.

    Saw that before. The Shark is Super Imposed on the Picture of an American UH-60 Black Hawk.

    ;)

    Its during Training, and If I Can Find the original Pic, The Picture in the Link above is actually Reversed

    But It looks funny, so thats all that matters :D
