Enh, not too NSFW – back view of a model in a thong bathing suit that lasts for a few seconds – but I added a spoiler box anyway to bring it into compliance with our two-click rule. ---

What’s with the jello ankles? I fell off a platform once, I’m pretty sure my ankle didn’t do that. I landed on my heel, it was the platform that went sideways and my foot came out of it like it should. Maybe it’s all that figure skating I did as a kid. ---

I love this video–it’s on my YouTube fave list, so that anytime I need a good laugh, I can watch it! The worst (funniest) thing about it was how every time they’d try to talk, the clip would repeat and off they’d go again into gales of laughter. The woman was trying not to lose it, but it wasn’t easy with two hyenas howling beside her! ---

One of the models, it looked like she flat out couldn’t keep her feet in her shoes, how can you walk like that? I loved the one with the giant pendulum, was that a clip from Wipeout? ---

High heels need to be strapped on snuggly, fit really well or what you’re seeing results. Just a small amount of play in the fit makes them especially teetery. No matter how coordinated a person is the laws of physics are against you. (The video made me cringe to watch) ---

Kudos to the guys who stopped to help–as opposed to the male model who just keeps on walking. Glad I don’t find heels sexy. ---

Oh, God, I laughed so hard. I feel bad for the young ladies, but you get extreme high heels, slippery walkways, dresses that come down below their feet, and young women who don’t ever eat, and that’s gonna happen.
