some kind of marker to keep boats from hitting it?

[–] JuniorMints 13 years ago

I was wondering that myself.

At first, when they showed it from a distance, I thought it might be some sort of tall palm tree. But when they neared it, it was obviously a man made structure.

I was disappointed when they never bothered to explain it.

i thought it was a person at first and for a few minutes i was wondering why they don't even acknowledge that there's someone on the island

Would something like that have flares or any type of equipment that would be of help to people? Or was it just a simple structure with nothing extra to help stranded individuals? If it was a structure without anything else, the lady stranded would just have to wait it out there and hope that someone saw her? Which might be rare as people would avoid this area that had a marker warning people to stay away because of the reefs...

I believe it had some kind of rescue equipment since in the real story they have found the woman after a while.

Question:

Wtf is the point in posting a comment answering a question over FOUR YEARS AGO?

Answer: Every time someone responds to something I post, imdb.com sends me a message that I have a response...and I read everyone. So it's possible the OP is interested in what others have to say.

Question: Wtf is up with posting random questions (like yours) which have nothing to do with the thread...and is just basically somebody whining?
