The Appel / Fuiava story strikes me as even more Fortean owing to the increasing number of things that just don't add up.
Now if only the dogs could talk...

Well I was trying to figure out what they could possibly have been up to but it is all very odd. I am not sure how you could guarantee to get yourselves book deals etc.Am I alone in hearing the phrases "book deal", "movie rights" and "gallant lesbians triumph over [self-inflicted] adversity"?

And one arm fewer than he started with.Aron Ralston was a complete fucking muppet. He went rock climbing with no 'phone, having told no one where he was going, and carrying little water and no food apart from two burritos. He got himself trapped for almost a week, and had to cut off his own arm with an economy multitool. Result? Book and film (127 Hours).

...would anyone buy the book or watch the film?
Is the shark involved in the sapphic nookie, then?It's got scantily-clad women, a frisson of Sapphic sex and a fucking shark! I'd buy it!

I enjoyed the film, actually. But all the way through it I kept thinking 'what an idiot'.Aron Ralston was a complete fucking muppet.

Also hard to believe "they endured a tiger shark attack" whilst on the boat unless the sharks were of the flying variety.
It might be easier to believe "they endured a tiger attack". Or was that Life of Pi?
Perhaps they were just keeping her fresh for later consumption?Would three cats have been as helpful?
A Canadian dog walker could not have survived over two days in the wilderness without the help of her border collie, a boxer and a puggle.

Well, they're hard to light, but at least you get warmed up and then there's a hot meal afterwards.They can also make a tasty meal.

You wouldn't eat a dog. It would be used for hunting.More eating on a dog though.

She must have a real bad case of the munchies.She survived on grass and water during the ordeal, police said.
Only three days but still.
A woman in Manhattan got stuck in an elevator Friday evening – and wasn't rescued until Monday morning.
According to HuffPost, the unidentified woman was cleaning a five-story townhouse in the Upper East Side of Manhattan when she became trapped in the elevator between the 2nd and 3rd floor. The homeowners were out of town for the entire weekend, the elevator didn't have a phone, and apparently she didn't have a cell phone on her.
Finally, on Monday morning, one of the homeowners came home, realized what had happened and called 911. Firefighters broke into the elevator around 10am, rescued the woman, and sent her to the hospital. Miraculously, she's in good condition.
