He's got like a $100,000 worth of camera equipment on him, at least. Prime target for a mugging. :cool:

The poor guy's always getting picked on. This must be the 4th or 5th thread (and not necessarily in this forum) that I've read already picking on this guy. Looks like he's got enough "load on his shoulders" without everybody else picking on him. :mrgreen: :lol:

I note he seems to be sponsored by Stena Line, perhaps he uses one of their ferrys to cart all his gear around :lol:

Yeah I have seen that guy around on the net in other forums as well.

This guy is a prime example of someone in need of an assistant. I can imagine in about 20 years what this guys body will be like. Bad back, arthiritis in his shoulders, probably bad knees and maybe an elbow as well. Bet that guy clangs like a cow bell moving from location to location.


edit: notice on the big one (500 or 600?) he is carrying over his shoulder, man that thing looks like he beat his way out of a mugging with it. See all the scratches and chips on the barrel?


On shooting sports...If you see it happen then you didn't get it.

20 years ... ? He's probably there already - hope he's on a good health plan!

In fact, it looks like he might just end up with RLI - Repetitive Lens Injury! :D
