Couple floating on dolls rescued on Yarra River


A couple floating down Melbourne's Yarra River on inflatable dolls have been rescued after getting into trouble.

Police say the 19-year-old couple had just passed Pound Bend Tunnel at Warrandyte North when the water became turbulent and the woman lost control of her grip on the doll about 4.30pm (AEDT) on Sunday.

The woman grabbed hold of a tree that was floating in the river.

The man stayed with her and they yelled for help, police say.

1. "Police say the fate of the dolls is unknown..."

Bwahaha... can't give them the "heroes' welcome" they must richly deserve. That really blows!! :evilgrin:

2. Apparently one of them was a talking doll

which kept repeating " I've got a headache."

and my eyes are up HERE, buddy!"

3. After reading this article I still don't understand what happened.

Did this couple decide to flow down the river on dolls?

[Codeine]

5. Yep. Like many city-dwellers they think acting a fool

during a disaster is cute. You see the same douchenozzles on the beach as a hurricane approaches or "stormchasing" in Tornado Alley. Imbeciles.

18. Isn't it possible that the dolls were the only thing handy?

Maybe the flood just happened to arrive when they were gettin' busy. (All four of them,)
I'm fighting an urge to giggle here, but I'm glad they're ok.

20. apparently on purpose

A bizarre decision to ride an inflatable doll down a flood-swollen Yarra River blew up in a woman’s face yesterday when she lost her latex playmate in a rough patch.

4. "woman lost control of her grip"

remember, if you have an erection lasting longer than 4 hours it's time to see a doctor.
