Viral Squirrel Crasher


Squirrel Photo Crasher: Surely you recall seeing this image when it hit big a few months back. Many thought it was a fake, but it turns out that all the couple needed to score their 15-minutes was a Gorillapod, a camera and some luck. [Link]
No matter how many times I see this photo—of a squirrel crashing Melissa and Jackson Brandts' photo opportunity at Lake Minnewanka, in Canada's Banff National Park—it always makes me laugh. The fact that it's 100% real definitely helps:
I'm always the kind of photerrorist who just extends his arm to take self-portraits—often winning the Multiple Chin World Record—but this photo has convinced me that I need one of these portable tripod things for my trips. [Joby—Thanks OMGPonies!]
