I must say, I find it odd that they claim the barge "hit" the other boats when the barge is obviously stationary (until the ferry hits it) and the ferry is the one drifting sideways into it and other boats.

I kind of want to watch this in slo-mo. So German boats don't steer? Or is floating down a river sideways just the way it's done nowadays?

Yea it is real hard to see the cables, but someone was either ahead of themselves, or a cable that was to feed out stopped unexpectedly. The ship was dragged sideways practically.

OH YEAH!!! I could STILL use one of those. It would need to be the large version though, my stump is about 3 times that size! If I had that, I would have finished months ago.
I'm near 1/3 of the way done digging it out by hand. There's a clay layer below it that the roots didn't penetrate, so I have dug down into that, and then I started going sideways under the root mass. It's making a 'cave' of roots that look pretty neat. I might try to leave the stump and roots in the pond for habitat and to make a small island for turtles. I'll have to cut it loose from the walls and below so the concrete will seal, but I have a plan for that. Maybe I'll shoot you a pic if I can 'dig up' your email.

haha, well that went sideways fast...

Fixed.. tho the sideways view isn't quite as impressive.

^ I don't know guys, I still say if I had to choose which of these dipshits to defend it'd be the biker guy. I wouldn't defend his actions because they're obviously idiotic. Check. I get that part. But I can respect that he actually speaks his mind to pseudo-journalists like these. They're scum and are a sideways step from paparazzi. Does the biker not have a point that it's rude to film people without their authorization? Who here likes that?

Is this an attempt to remove the jeep from a concrete-like substance? I note nobody is even remotely sinking into the "mud" on foot anywhere near it. Looks like they came back after the ground dried out.

I saw this wicked rescue setup once. It basically was a crane they assembled on site, using those three-sided trusses people use for radio towers, and would lift the vehicle mostly up out of the mud instead of just drag it sideways.

Blow me sideways - this is beautiful - and epic! Upvote - on so many levels.

I wonder if it's just a sliver from the original vertical image, ie if it's just cropped.. If so, you can do that afterwards.

It does, in the sense that when you see someone reversing the whole way to the store or driving the car likes it's suppose to be driven.. It's facepalm worth, not the end of the world zombie apocalypse. The reason we still try to educate is that almost all actions that humans do, involve horizontal movement across the screen, things move sideways, not up and down. It's a pain to watch, effing hard to follow and there's no safety margins in the most important direction that would allow movement to happen on screen.. So the end result is trying to watch thru a keyhole and someone else is holding you head. If the target is stationary, you don't see vertical video syndrome compulsory complaints.

note to self: never attempt a sideways grind on skis.

Lol love that kitten sideways jump when backing away from something threatening in play.

Look MilkmanDan, it was not the intention to offend you in particular, we merely leapt like a robot at an opportunity to snub a nose at rules-of-engagement relative to rules in-general and some of the more didactic pet-peeves some but not all have with regards to what we personally regard as insignificant, but that some folks seem to get bent-sideways about and begin these tiresome pedantic, didactic dull-ass comment threads.

Who cares if it's tagged incorrectly, who cares if it's marked long when it's really short? Who cares obviously some folks do and it bothers the shit outta them. There is no 'why', simply the questions of how what, when and who had a part in creating these inconsequential concerns in some people that it matters at all?

That you wanted to down-vote a comment suggests perhaps someone thought someone else was crude, mean, rude, or too direct or forward in their protest. We can live with that, as well as the supercilious reasoning for your not voting this video up, in our LTHO.

At the end of the day, you got yer cute kitty dragging someone's be-bootied -with-shoe-cover foot being dragged up close-in to a mischievous, playful cat's clawing with head-banging glee, and it's AS cute, as that slammin' chick's back-side in the screen-shot, unless you are from some other planet where rippin' asses don't stir your loins a bit, be you male or female, gay, straight or otherwise.

Glad you dug the misdirection as much as myself an we thank you for your sincere feedback.

Personally, I vote shit up based on the fact that the original submitter enjoyed the video enough to embed it, and at the end of the day it makes folks happy about contributing to the site and therefore the entire sift community benefits.

What really IS an affirmative vote anyway, but a gesture of goodwill and kindness directed outward from the wealth of consideration one has for oneself?

Do unto others, then run away as fast as you can...to paraphrase the rule.

Oh and the ass-wiping analogy was meant for all the OCD retentive types, the kind of people where everything has to be just-so or their fucking heads will explode....perhaps I should check a mirror??

Wow, very popular for a video that's FARKING SIDEWAYS.

*promote this beautiful country fucked sideways from the inside and out.
