Pigs Swimming in the Ocean in the Bahamas

Posted by on Dec 19, 2011 in animals, Bacon | 0 comments

When people visit the un-inhabited island, Staniel Cay in the Bahamas, they’re greeted by a family of impatient pigs. Before boats hit the land, pigs swim out to incoming boats in hopes the swimming pig trick results in some kind of treat. Who knew a swimming pig would be so cute‽ And I want bacon now.

I know what I want to do with Bacon.TV, but I don’t have the money to produce it. It’s better to start where you can than not start at all, so this weekend I shot the first bit for Bacon.TV.

KFC Thinks Different with the Double Down Bacon Sandwich
