A shotgun wouldn't make much difference. But I seem to Mr Cube using something more like a grenade launcher. As the grenade went off underwater it would create a great big bubble of air which would then break up into little bubbles. The density of the small patch of water he was aiming for would therefore be less (albeit for only a brief period of time).
Whilst I very much doubt Mr Cube could survive a 200ft fall at 150mph, I think it might be possible to use the same technique in slightly less extreme circumstances.
Now that I think about it, Mr Cube might be better off trying to skim across the surface of the water, like a water-skier falling over.
And I'm having problems installing a new theme over this disgusting new default... anyone else having the same problem? Did the architecture for themes really change that much from 0.8 to this release?
This is Version 0.9RC, a release candidate, that's why you see "Version 0.8" in the install screens.
Seems a bit faster to start up than before and the warning on closing a window with multiple tabs open is long overdue. The new theme, however, is pretty disgusting (except the "throbber") and most of the themes out there don't seem to be backwards compatible.

...that it works both ways? "Wow, I'm invisible! Only I can't go anywhere or do anything because I can't see where I'm going."

You do know where it is, right? I'd like to see you try and get near it with a stick of dynamite!
Plus it gives you plausible deniability when the RIAA/MPAA/DCMA/ETC come calling...
Long live The Beeb.
Sure, there's a flash banner at the top of the page, but FlashBlock takes care of that.

I thank you, Sir!
Personally I think the first film was just about the best set-up for a "TV series based on a movie" EVAR!
I am very happy to pay my TV license fee to fund the BBC. Long live the BBC!
