It's all peaches and cream until the line doesn't release and you drone turns into a short term submarine or an expensive anchor.

Just goes to show that when you thought they had done it all, there's someone that has nothing better to do than take surf fishing to a lower level.

Sorry, but drones are just one more on a long list of wasted technology, wasted on people stupid enough to shell out the money for a completely one-dimensional "pet rock".

What I find really repugnant is that these every-day internet stars find nothing wrong with flying these things without regard for airspace safety or the fact that they are basically showing someone just how easy it would be to use a drone for some truly evil purpose.

Mock me if you want, but when some low-life scum decides to commit a heinous act against innocent people using one of these things, at least give me the privilege to say "I told you so!"

Exactly what were we thinking when a military grade tool is suddenly allowed to be used my the mindless masses for stupid human tricks?

That's all.

(The next thing you'll see is news stories of people getting into car wrecks because they were operating their drones while driving, in order to get the "ultimate drone selfie"!!!)
