8/5/2005: Miss Piggy attempts record leap



xoB/WaPo brings us this IotD regular. From the same show that brought us the very first Friday image, it's a diving pig show in Darwin Australia. But this time the pig, one "Miss Piggy", is attempting to break a world record for pig diving.

full story with videos



Go Piggy Go!

They think she did break the record with a 3.31 metre dive, but there was some controversy which meant it wasn't recorded as the record yet.



Jumping out of the water after her dive.

OK busterb, tell me you don't have any pickle or relish recipes. I know it ain't your fault, but I'm bringing in about 3 gallons of pickling cukes a day and I'm looking for a little variety. (you know, the spice of life)
