13	friendofdd Fri 6/27/2008 7:26p	I've heard that one person, after being scratched by the branch that didn't hit anybody, had a mark under their left ear that resembled a mickey head. There is every likelihood photos will be offered on e-bay.

The photo shows that this was a large branch and if someone had been right below it or in the wrong place they could've been seriously hurt or even killed. Granted, that still may not qualify as "news" since no one was hurt, but the branch is at least 25 or 30 feet long with several other branches attached to it. Here's a link directly to the photo: http://ocresort.freedombloggin...oto2.JPG

16	bean Fri 6/27/2008 9:16p	Luckily the majority of the weight was still being held up by the tree. The branch was still attached and the heavy sections of the branch were still a good distance up. If anything people standing under it would had been scratch badly but i am guessing the sound of the branch breaking would had made people react to at least move out of the way. If it had caused some problem i would think it would be newsworthy but sinc eit did not cause any problems it really was not. The media just happened to be there due to the picketing from one of the unions

18	coastlitho Mon 6/30/2008 12:52p	There's some better pictures of it here: http://la.metblogs.com/2008/06...s-sound/ It looks like it was a big tree!
