Light pole stops two prisoners
January 29, 2009 @ 6:09 pm
Two New Zealand prisoners are back in custody right now after trying to make a run for freedom only to be stopped by a light pole. You see, the two prisoners were handcuffed together when they decided that making a run for it would be logical. So they did and were immediately pepper-sprayed but not captured — yet.
The two managed to get out into the street — albeit a bit dazed and confused from the pepper-spray — and were shortly stopped by their own stupidity. Forgetting that they were still handcuffed, the two separately ran around opposite sides of a light pole and were thrust into each other. The surveillance video is definitely something to laugh over.

Penguin jumps into boat to escape killer whales

How cute is this little black and white fella! This penguin escapes death from a pack of killer whales by jumping directly into a boat of people! Then, after it’s inside the boat, the penguin hops around the edge of the boat to get a better look at his would-be killers! [via]
