Am I the only one who sees a man in a kayak..?

Not having a pop - I just hadn't notice what it actually was until today.

[another-view]

looks like someone with a goat on a stick to me.

[ummmm]

Same as...

I think you should post a copy of it, should in case he decides to change it. lol

No I saw a bloke in a Kayak - What The Funicular

[rojash]

Looks like a man with a pig on a stick, to me (maybe a wholefood version of souvlaki)

[jackthehat]

Definitely 'goat on a stick'....................coming to a kebab-shop near you...........!!

[WaldoMcFroog]

You lot must have better eyesight than me (too much w...?). I couldn't see it properly until I clicked to see the larger version.

I couldn't make it out, so I asked him a couple of weeks ago. It's a ram doing a balancing act. Apparently the ram's owner gradually builds up blocks under the animal's feet and it's done to entertain the children. I think I've got that right. He said he took the picture recently outside his father's house in Pakistan.

Oh dear! I always thought it was an Indian gentleman sitting on the pavement with a dog doing a balance act on the end of his snakecharmers flute.

[tamborine]

it's a lolly dog....where would the first lick be? lol

[RATTER15]

I see a ram being treated in an appalling manner to entertain the public, terrified to move for fear of falling, and some religious fanatic being so amused by this he photographed it and then he used it as his identifying avatar!! but then again, he is a Muslim, so wouldn't find this offensive. If this kind of trick was carried out in a public street in this country he would have been stoned to death by the animal lovers, or is that just wishful thinking!!

[wildwood]

I think you are being unfair Ratter. Many here have had a difference of opinion with keyplus but to rate him as an animal abuser because of his muslim believes is surely going too far.

In passing, goats are the most sure footed herbivores in the world so balancing on a small object is a cinch for them so no animal cruelty took place, at least no more so than making a dog sit or jump through a hoop.

He's pinched it from here.

As a by the way, this is a genuine photo of wild goats behaving naturally in the wild.

I was fascinated when I first came across them.

[RATTER15]

Wildwood,dogs actually enjoy jumping through hoops etc, they are taught to play this game and they actually enjoy it!! and yes you are correct in saying goats are very sure footed, however making a goat balance on a pole like that, is no fun for the goat or any other creature knowing that if it just moves a single muscle it will fall. I accept that falling from that hight is hardly going to cause any great harm but how would you like to have to balance on a pole for someone elses amusement!! Sick!!!!!

My comments and my opinion stand !!!!!
