@th oh wow I had no idea :O

"The #Palingoproer or the Eel riot was a popular uprising in the Jordaan in Amsterdam on 25 and 26 July 1886. The riots started when the police tried to thwart playing the forbidden game of #eel pulling on the Lindengracht.

In the uproar that followed, 26 people were killed. Social historians place the events in a context of social tensions as a result of increasing socio-economic differences in 19th-century #Amsterdam society." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palingoproer

Whitemouth Moray Eel, Guam 🇬🇺

On this day, we had a planned dive on the Northern end of Guam. a more advanced dive and I was pretty excited for it. Sea conditions were not great though and the Captain noped out of there. Still got four great dives in that day, and on the first one I learned that you can't leave your lens on manual focus and forget you had your shutter on a timer 😂
