Post pics that you risked your life to take

[taterguy]

Despite being the mild-mannered aunt in the Spiderman movies, Rosemary Harris can kick some serious ass if you take her picture without permission



It's called Devil's Corkscrew for a reason. Venture there and the devil will screw with you



Don't fuck with this duck

1. Kick for the afternoon daredevils

2. Hmmm...depends on some's definition of risk taking.

I flew a plane that was built before I was born to get these shots of Niagara Falls.



I probably would have died of alcohol poisoning if I had finished this long island iced tea (with melon liquour for color) all by myself.

3. If you flew the plane after drinking the Ice Tea that would qualify

If you were the pilot.

13. My favorite place at the falls is Goat Island.

It's that small island directly above the falls on the left side fo the river in that first picture, out in the rapids.

I used to love to just sit on a rock and watch the rapids go buy, usually while munching on peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. :)

I've never seen the falls from the air. That must have been pretty cool.

4. ...

I didn't take this one, my son did, but I have a half dozen similar print ones I HAVE taken (too lazy to go find, scan and upload)




not too risky unless you realize I am a fat middle-aged woman who was wearing sandals when I climbed up for this view:




Rabid bat:


(well, it could have been):o

5. I will not be posting snake pics

I turn around and run when I see them, even if I'm at the Zoo

[merh]

6. actually, it wasn't really about risking life

as it was we had to do something, we had no way out. We were just stuck and praying an awful lot. (my apologies to the nonpraying types, not intended to offend, just saying how it was - if worked for us.)

7. while driving on the Going to the Sun road in freezing rain

One wrong turn and you are going off the side of the mountain.

8. Especially if you get distracted while screwing with your camera

:)

9. woo-hoo!!!

It wasn't really that risky, but it sure was fun :evilgrin:

[Wcross]

11. Yeah, almost out of gas and no station in sight! n/t

[guitar man]

12. actually

I probably had 90-100 miles worth of gas left at that point and I was about 10 miles from town :)

10. On top of a waterfall:

At Haleakala National Park, Maui.


Here's what it looks like from the front:

14. This was SO dangerous.

See

[Blue-Jay]

15. "I KEEL you!"

[taterguy]

17. How did you hold the camera steady?

I'd be shaking like a leaf in a hurricane if I was ever confronted by such a vicious beast.

18. I was laughing at her. She is hilarious when she gets "Mad"

Yeah I got scratched, but right after that she ran her nose and face down my arm and purred. She does not stay mad long.

16. That duck is deadly.

:rofl: And so is Rosemary Harris. :P Great pics! :hi:
