Skydiver drops camera and it lands in a Pig Pen






After a man’s camera slipped out of the plane door on a skydiving expedition, it tumbled down into an unusual place, capturing the attention of an inquisitive animal.

The camera fell right into a pig pen, where muddy and curious pigs found the camera to be an interesting addition to their outdoor enclosure. The pigs even got up close and personal to see what the new object was, in effect, taking their own selfies with the lost camera!
