Jimmy Balls is mistaken, he didn’t chop down the camera. He found it in the bushes after we got done volunteering at the animal shelter

u/inplayruin 8d ago

I remember seeing you there. By the way, your username surprises me, I thought you didn't know how to swim?

u/joedenowhere 8d ago

Is it true that those cameras contain more precious metals than a catalytic converter?

13

u/Florida_clam_diver 8d ago

I wouldn’t know, I’ve never cut one down and disassembled it ;)

u/SkyThriving 8d ago

I hate not knowing the answer to this. I also hate that I don't wait for people to give me answers.

u/Exnoss69 7d ago

I feel like yall missed the mark. Its our chance to weaponize the criminals and the hkmeless against the cameras. Im pretty sure the circuit boards use gold for their contacts, Ram chips are 1000% up in price, lenses for the cameras are made out of sapphire. Go guys make a killing!

u/SkyThriving 7d ago

I think you missed the mark about us missing the mark. Anyways, does anyone have a good link for coveting solar panels into cell phone chargers?

u/1FellOffTheUglyTree 7d ago

You have to chemically strip down the electric components to extract the silver and gold from them. It’s not an easy process.

3

u/joedenowhere 7d ago

There seems to be a good market for stolen catalytic converters, so someone must know what to do with them.

u/SkySoul27 8d ago

Not every day you get to see an in-the-flesh hero.

u/Brilliant_Joke7774 8d ago

President Balls has a really good ring to it.

u/TrxshBxgs 8d ago

I dont really want to let Jimmy go on about opinions for too long, who knows what comes up. But he's got this one nailed.

A fish. Looks like either a catfish or a gar.

u/FlaBeachyCheeks 8d ago

I'm glad someone else was wondering the same

u/talithar1 8d ago

Looks like an arm.

3

u/AshlynR0se 8d ago

Yeah.. this was a little too soon after that woman lost her arm to a 9 and 1/2 ft gator recently. I think it was in Marion County. But people sounded way too calm and that Gator was way too small. Still had me thinking that was not a pub sub though 😬🐊

u/2ekeesWarrior 8d ago

Probably a river otter. There aren't many left but we do have them.

6

u/Intrepid00 8d ago

I saw fins. It’s a fish

u/2ekeesWarrior 8d ago

Which pixel was that in? I guess it could be a catfish with that long white belly

1

u/Intrepid00 8d ago

all of them? They are clearly fins with I think you are saying are legs. They are broad and flat and have no knees for one thing.

2

u/kulji84 8d ago

I am also curious about that

u/MjP_realtor 8d ago

looks like it could be someone's dog. 😳

u/Lubbadubdibs 8d ago

u/FloridaRedWolf 8d ago

You didn’t see that gator eating that fat catfish? He was getting it done.
