What do Great Danes do all day?.

What do Great Danes do all day?.

What do dogs get up to when their owners are at work?
They have a pool party of course. Well, this particular pet does anyway.



An amusing video has captured a Great Dane having a great time tumbling down a waterslide into its owner's swimming pool, supposedly while they're out for the day.
SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO




The huge black animal is seen on the tape bounding down the slippery slide, which is carved out of what look to be rocks on the side of the pool.

The canine then lands with a gigantic splash in the middle of the water.


Happily, he doggy-paddles over to the edge of the pool and hauls himself onto the pavement.

He then energetically does it all again. And again.

At the start of the film, the pooch's pal, a smaller white-haired dog, watches on but soon loses interest. Cannonballs are obviously not his idea of fun.

According to You Tube, the family in question kept coming home to puddles of water on the verandah by their pool.

Initially, they thought their neighbour's kids were jumping the fence and using the pool while they were at work.

But after installing the security camera they captured their animal's amusing antics.

Sometimes you just need to start your own thread, Transient, instead of supporting somebody else's.:biggrin2:

On the other hand, what a great excuse to holler "You Prick!"
 
:biggrin2: Only kidding, I know it's near impossible to know what's been posted on other threads. This one is so great, it can be posted twice.













You're still a Prick!
 
what a life it must be to be that dog.......

but more responsibly thinking, they must be loaded to leave the pump running all day to power the water slide......what a waste of energy. The US will never break it's addiction to energy consumption until people realize that just because you can afford to waste energy, that you shouldn't.

You should run on the next elections. No shit you will save the city tons of mula.
 
To think I completely missed the economic and environmental ramifications of this video! I was just enjoying watching a dog having fun on a slide. Maybe this thread should be moved to the political section. :biggrin2:
 
sorry tranny, but I've become really energy conscientous this year due to having to watch every amp that I use. To me, running the large pump to move that much water every day is no different than letting your car idle all day with the a/c on so it will be cool when you get in to drive home.....

I have a large generator for when the power goes out that allows me to continue surfing for porn uninterrupted.

I have come to believe that very few videos online are truly candid. A staged video and a cute back story tends to draw more coveted views.
 
New details of a ship’s battle with superstorm Sandy


A new account of the HMS Bounty's last hours battling Hurricane Sandy reads like a novel. But unfortunately the story is true, and ends tragically with the death of the captain and a crew member and the destruction of the ship.
Reports have emerged that Capt. Robin Walbridge chose to ride out Hurricane Sandy at sea instead of keeping the ship docked, where it would most likely have sustained major damage without any loss of life.

The details as told by surviving crew members, to the German publication Spiegel and published onABC's website in English, claim that the captain's risky decision could have been swayed by the ship's owner, New York businessman Robert Hansen, who was trying to sell the Bounty for $4.6 million.
As the publication describes the choice:

Captain Walbridge had a decision to make. He could leave the ship, the Bounty, in the harbor at New London, where it would be tossed back and forth by the storm and would presumably sustain serious damage. Or he could try to save the ship by taking it out into the Atlantic, thereby putting his life and the lives of his 15 crewmembers on the line. Walbridge wanted to save his ship. A ship versus 16 human lives. How can such a decision be explained?

The Spiegel report adds that the 63-year-old, normally calm and level-headed, who had been at the helm of the Bounty for 17 years, turned into someone different, a man "who overestimated himself and his ship, and who felt invincible after all those years at sea." One interview revealed he discussed "chasing hurricanes," whereas the common wisdom is to follow them.

As we now know, the plan went disastrously wrong, with the crew abandoning ship. The three-masted tall ship went down in 18-foot-high waves off the coast of North Carolina.

The Coast Guard rescued 14 of the crew in two life rafts, which left two missing. The 42-year-old crew member Claudene Christian was found dead in the water later that day. A descendant of the 1789 mutiny of the original Bounty, Fletcher Christian, she had texted her mother earlier that day, "Don't worry. We'll be fine. ... Our ship is strong. They say Bounty loves hurricanes."
A search for the captain was eventually called off.
The Coast Guard is looking into whether anyone is to blame for the sinking of the ship—which was built for the 1962 film "Mutiny on the Bounty" and can also be seen in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies.
