Is your beach a righty or a lefty.

I wanted to general question this, but I’m sure it will deteriorate to beyond what is a suitable discussion on the subject.

The article is about shoes with feet in them that show up on beaches. The statement is made that due too the difference in feet, right and left can follow a trend to show up in different places regularly. I can see how the angle of the foot in a shoe could act as a rudder with left and right going to different locations. Is there any collected data that can verify this? This would be something I expect needs the correct current and land projections to work, so I don’t expect it would occur for most beaches.

Article about mystery feet and how they sometimes get sorted.

Jesus Christ- I came in here thinking that this was a question about surf breaks…

Holy crap!

:eek:

I try to get head when I go to the beach.

I am particularly disturbed as I am in that very area right now :eek: I was to fly home to Toronto tomorrow, but apparently an enormous storm there will prevent my doing so.

I’m taking comfort in the knowledge that two feet are sized twelve (and I’m a dainty girl 8).

Note to self - don’t wear sneakers in Victoria!

Me too… imagine my surprise.

Ah, and that turned out to be a fibia.

I wonder if rabbits ever feel this way at trading posts.

I wish gabriela was around. This is something she might know.

“It’s not that unusual to find feet”
:eek:

I guess the moral is wear sandals at the beach.

How big a sample size are we talking about here? Seems a bit previous to be saying that the ocean sorts left and right feet based on half a dozen instances.

Finding half a dozen severed feet is shocking, without a doubt, but does the data stand up to scrutiny? (yes, a pun-fest is inevitable)

I’ll wager the stats can go toe to toe with any rigorous analysis. Hopefully, the researchers will not be arch in manner, but will tread respectfully–they have pretty big shoes to fill.

I don’t want to be a heel, so I’ll show a little sole and give their effort a big kick-off!

Three feet? Sounds like a case for Scotland Yard.

Yah, but there it’s like only a meter or something.

Also remember that two rights do not make a left, but three do.
