I'd just like to know at what point he realised it was a bad idea to cut across the mud... because surely any sane person would make that decision before the mud reached their waist.
I wonder if the bike's still there...

I'd like to believe that he took a blow to the wallet paying for the helicopter ride.

I've sailed round there a bit. It's well known that it's bloody silly to go for a stroll across the mud banks. The bloke must have been an utter tool.Sometimes parts break. Sometimes you crash. Sometimes it’s your fault.0
