| I don't know if this story is in the same category,
| because it didn't happen to me; but it is quite sad
| and hilarious. I went down to Florida this Summer and
| did all the standard stops. This happened in Universal
| Studios Florida. I was riding on the Jaws ride. The
| guy next to me had an F5 with some really expensive
| looking Nikkor Zoom. I had my trusty OM-4 with a
| 35-70/3.5-4.5 . He gives me a smug superior look, one
| of those "I've got a bigger camera than you looks"
| Well the ride starts up and we both start taking some
| pics. Then the shark jumped up. Well the guy was so
| startled he dropped his camera... right into the
| shark's mouth! Appparently he had forgotten to put the
| neckstrap around his neck where it would have done
| some good. Jaws had two victims that day. The guy's
| camera and his ego. I feel sorry for him now of course
| but then I was LMAO.
