garimpo Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 This is about a man working his excavator for BP Petroleum on theirpipeline where it crossed a lake....the machine turned over trappinghim under water....he had to break the window out of the cab to get to the surface...in the process he cut his hand....The blood from his cut hand attracted Piranhas....the two on the left are Piranhas.....he was in the water a very short time but it was way to long....I have more pics but they are very graffic...if anybody wants to view the results say so...

garimpo Posted May 3, 2010 Author Share Posted May 3, 2010 After seeing these pics I think you'll agree that the "greenies" and he FS are just a little neiusance....in the past when I was dredging I would see Piranhas and a lot of other species that also have a mouth full of teeth but they never bothered me...could be because I didn't have any open cuts and for sure no blood in the water...a clue as to what's coming is in the pic above...surgical instruments...dead fish...a small part of a shoulder and their all on a slab....John I sure wish you hadn't mentioned "fish food"...I'll give you a preview(graffic)...
