Not sure how they landed in the water after a 60 foot plunge, but if they jumped and entered the water feet first 60 feet isn’t that big a deal.

That does not look like the underside of the Card Sound Bridge.

Much of the water under the card Sound Bridge is shallow. Perhaps the Darwin Award contender hit bottom.

If so, could one say he recreated where he seemingly had to have been procreated - in the shallow end of the gene pool?

That CD was on my desk on Oct. 31, 1988 when I signed up for FreeRepublic and the screenname Publius was already taken.

That was a great idea. (wasn’t that 1998, BTW?)

I lurked for a couple of years before I ever signed up. My screenname is my birthday, as you may recall.

We can only hope he Darwinized himself and didn’t reproduce before he jumped.

Um, yeah, 1998, not 1988. That’s about how my day has been going :) Yeah, I do remember that was (and still is!) your bday.

He was doing his impression of Obama’s poll numbers.

I have had a similar day and a similar week!

I have a big one coming up this year. It beats not having them! Have a great weekend.

And the worst part is, his estate got a ticket for toll evasion.

Then again we were sober and knew what angle we were hitting the water at.

I've gone off at 40 feet and all I felt was a good slap on the bottom of my feet. Had friends that did 80 and they walked away. I was too chicken.
