    these things are dangerous, I know a girl in N.Z. who lost her arm diving to one of these. She had fish in her bc vest and it latched onto her arm and twisted it right off, no kidding.

  • MuscularTeethVoted Most Helpful Bubbler replied

    yeah right… wow.
    i just figured it would bite me and hurt but not that bad… wow.

  • JohnScott

    JohnScott

    yeh wow, she purchased her house with the compensation, but I would prefer my arm back. Maybe they should have grafted the eel and the arm back on, and she could star in a new spiderman flick

    How about this, Musky Teeth?....

    Looks like getting that colonoscopy was a really good idea!

    No wonder you had trouble gaining weight, and putting some meat on your bones!

    Nastiest tape worm I’ve ever seen!

  • MuscularTeethVoted Most Helpful Bubbler replied

    hahaha! trouble gaining weight? me? im a lithe 56kgs matey!

  • Hank Rodriguez

    Hank Rodriguez

    Remember…I’m a Bloody Yankee American. We don’t learn metric to standard conversions over here anymore. Our public school systems are turning to rot, so I wouldn’t know if 56kgs makes you some kind of behemoth, or a Lilliputian, my friend!......Educate, Mate!

  • James Lillis

    James Lillis

    FREAKY! I would die.

    To clarify for the americans, 56kgs is pretty much obese. Anything over 55 and you’re going to be bedridden – no hope of getting out the door.

    hi !!
    i come back to view your fascinating work again ~ and enjoyed so much reading your comments and your replies ~ LOL really wonderful !! i especially like: butchart, it reminds me of the view a womans egg might have …just moments b4 conception… i might have evn entitled it “broken condom” and Tania Donald, sweet jesus! so visceral, my stomach clenched when i looked at this…like he’s living in a dismembered torso or something. what an amazing shot! like the song says, “when the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that’s a Moray….”

    That’s Amorè ahahahahaha

    haha im glad you like Karon, i have a lot of fun commenting and replying – i find it almost as much fun as writing a story.

    anyway, remember an Eel says i Care – so buy this now.

    11 months ago I asked”
    Is there some sort of Freudian subtext in this image?
    On reflection I realise I was wrong.
    There is one hell of an anime subtext to this image. The sweet looking demonbabe who has an unexpected appendage lurking, ready to feed on foolish horny mortal men – it’s a theme that’s been used a thousand times. Well, once at least, sort of. Wicked City.

  • MuscularTeethVoted Most Helpful Bubbler replied

    haha cheers gregory

    I was going to link to something on youtube, but your admirers probably aren’t ready for that. Ha – most of my admirers would be seriously freaked out too.

    Eeeeeeek!! I just read all your mail and your ‘congratulations, have an eel photo’ is hysterical! Wow, that is really hideous!! ;) He looks as if he is in the throat of an enormous monster! I can only imagine if I was diving in the beautiful deep blue sea, enjoying the peaceful and soothing solitude of the deep and then happened upon this, could anyone hear a scream under water??!! And then there’s Gregory’s note…. oh Lord! ahahaha!! LOL

  • MuscularTeethVoted Most Helpful Bubbler replied

    haha thanks for looking sharon, truth be told when i was taking the photo i was so engrossed in the shot i really wasnt paying attention to the dangers of it.
