Fugitive penguin 337 spotted alive in Tokyo Bay
TOKYO (Reuters) - After Penguin Number 337 made a daring bid for freedom from a Tokyo aquarium and vanished into the waters of Tokyo Bay two months ago, many feared the worst for the adventurous feathered fugitive. But the one-year-old Humboldt penguin has now popped up on video footage in a different part of the bay, frolicking in the water and apparently healthy. The penguin, still too young to determine whether it is male or female and thus known only by a number, scaled a rock wall four metres (13 ft) high and squeezed through a barbed wire fence to escape its harbourside aquarium in ...

(Reuters) - Washington pitcher Stephen Strasburg may read warning labels a little closer in future after some 'Hot Stuff' heat rub ointment got on "the wrong place" and made Tuesday's outing on the mound an uncomfortable one.

Nationals manager Davey Johnson told reporters the ointment had rubbed Strasburg the wrong way. ...

The show that's always on the Sci-fi channel with the TAPS team.
Is the show staged at all?
If not, any cool experiences yourself?
How often do you travel and what were your favorite places?
How edited is the show?
How long do you spend at each location?
I know that a lot of people think these shows are fake, but I would really like to hear it from the perspective of someone from the staff that travels with them to all of these different locations. Genuinely curious.
*Edit: This is a request for a cameraman's experiences on what its like to work with them and what their line of work is like. Of course television is edited, but some people do have personal experiences.
*Edit 2: Trolls.....Trolls everywhere
