Certain. It had a happy rear-ending.

So funny, like something out of a John Candy movie.

Old guys sunning in the nude is far more Bavarian than Floridian, I would say.

The guy must have been pretty desperate. Probably didn’t have a current backup.

Wild boars are the most dangerous animals you’re likely to encounter in a German forest, and especially the females with offspring are not to be trifled with. 150 kilograms of pure muscle and thick hide, and can they move if they want to. The wolves and bears are gradually coming back but for the time being, beware of the boars.

They applauded him because of “how focused he stayed” when retrieving his laptop? In context, “focus” doesn’t sound altogether ‘right’ to these American ears. Unless that was a comment on how – although butt-naked – unabashed he appeared when going after the boar (which I don’t believe is the case), the applause must have been for his dogged determination.
