WATER WATER EVERYWHERE
ALL THINGS FLUID
I stumbled upon a plethora of images concerning water and decided to collect them all. Some are subpar, but, hey, they fit the topic.
Is there anything more depressing than what humans have done with Earth's most precious resource?
The misery we cause...
Moving on...

I had no idea they could do this...

Nothing like being launched 80 ft in the air by an apex predator.
Quit playing with your food!

It's a pretty sure bet that any moon or planet with liquid water has some sort of life.
Do you think they first sunk those dead fish zip-tied together to draw in something to photograph?

Human problem solving at its finest.

You in my neighborhood now, Swimboy.
No, I think they are thinking "Are you edible?"

I read that those mammals can detect the difference between normal leaping and a spinning leap and they use it to send signals great distances.

"Hey, boss, I think I found the problem."

Somewhere along the north shore of Lake Superior, this river forks off near a rock outcropping. One side continues over the rocks like a normal waterfall, while the other side spills into a deep hole, vanishing seemingly forever.
A giant pothole, The Devil's Kettle, swallows half of the Brule River that runs through Judge C. R. Magney State Park.
Over the years people have thrown things down the hole to try and find where they would resurface, even using dye, all to no avail. Researchers think the water resurges beneath the stream. Water flow tests show that before that river splits, the water flows at 123 cubic feet/second, while several hundred feet below the waterfall, the water moved at a rate of 121 cubic feet/second. As for the the missing items, it is believed that that strength of the recirculating currents is enough to disintegrate and trap the debris until resurfacing downstream.

"Hold my beer."
Did you notice the scratches on his arm PRIOR to doing that?

The Ironclads were a giant leap in naval warfare.
And don't you know when they were hit by a shell, it rang like a bell inside.

Post cards then and now...
???..I have no idea.

Remember this?
Question: Their danger avoidance method of choice is to jump far out of the water, in that case above landing in the boat and on the shore. It that case they die and I'm thinking the jumping method of not dying is killing more of them than just staying in the water and hiding.

I live in the South, and all I can think about are the mosquitos.

At last I got this gif to load.
And it will do that over and over again, all you have to do is scrape the oxide (or whatever it is) off the surface of the aluminum under the tower.
That's why you can't take mercury on an aluminum airplane.

That is a painted woman.

Number one spot for committing suicide in New Mexico.
I've never really understood someone ending their own life. I can only credit it to a chemical imbalance in the brain.
Speaking of...
I looked that up and apparently it's true.

Shopped?

A story I told my male bartender:
"I'm not saying a big dick is important, but when I met my wife she was dating a gynecologist who drove a Ferrari and she picked me."
