honestly! Documentary filmmaking seems to be a dangerous profession! I'm sure Michael Moore is in a good bit of danger, but even less controversial filmmakers are putting their lives on the line. I heard about a film crew (think they were english) who were shooting in Israel, hey had permission from the soldiers at a base to film them from a hilltop as the sun set. When they were done they held up a white flag and walked back to thank them. The soldiers opened fire and killed the director. He'd been making the movie for months.

Titanium - I saw that DOC. I think it was on HBO and they were doing a piece on Palestinian children. I came in in the middle and watched through the end - when the Director was killed - walking up to the tank at night.

Very creepy, but a really good piece.

When I was a kid, I would go to the grocery store and stuff candy, handful by handful, down my pantlegs. I would fill my pants up to my knees with candy. It was kind of hard to walk with 20 extra pounds of candy in your pants, and every time I took a step there would be this super loud *RUSTLE* sound. I managed to get away with it everytime though.

Ive been into the "Restricted: Employees Only" section of a parking garage.

When I was about 7 years old I put nails underneath my neighbors car tires.

JW, I don't remember the name of it, but in searching the web, I came across this article from the UKs GUARDIAN paper:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/israel/Story/0,2763,948548,00.html

And here's another:

http://www.palestinemonitor.org/Special%20Section/Horrors%20of%20Gaza/gaza_death_film_tribute.htm

It appears the name is DEATH IN GAZA, but I'm not sure.

Hope this helps!
