Tsunami in South Srbia?

2005 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

36 years old Danilo Petrovic from Nis (South Srbia) was so shocked when he saw the tsunami footage on TV that he jumped out through his apartment window. It was only after the jump that he realised that tsunami is not actualy a threat to South Srbia. Luckily for him but not for us his appartmenet was located on the second floor and thus he survived the jump and only broke both legs and damaged his spine. He did say he will sue the local TV station (TV 5) for supposingly saying that "the tsunami is coming their way" and "emidiate evacuate". TV 5's editor denied those statements saying that Danilo misinterpreted the reporters words.

Definitely Keep: Honorable Mention
I love it! As I recall, there is a continent between the Indian ocean and Serbia.

I have to wonder if he's any kin to the guy who wanted to sail from Israel to Moldavia on a raft ("Mineral Water Trip")...
