Large Tar Balls Arrive on Florida's East Coast; Biologist asks if from BP Oil Spill

[AwesomeFish12]

Tar balls are pretty harmless. You can always just pick them up if you're worried.....

[mrkrabbypattie]

That's whale poop dummy.

[MotherMagdoline]

LOL: "we don't know why they're showing up", gee douches, ya think it could be the billions of gallons of oil that was gushing out of a crack in the earth a thousand feet below the ocean surface for months and months without let up? that might be it, hmm...((scratches head))

BULL SHIT!

[Wildrosestands]

We knew that it would eventually reach our shores. And we knew that mass media nd the government would lie about it to us, until they could lie no more.

[Wildrosestands]

So here we have evidence of tarballs in Stuart Florida and now we have evidence of tar balls in Cocoa. How stinking stupid do they think we are? No wonder they refer to us as useless eaters. If we can't even put two and two together to get the big picture, then something is definitely wrong with our intellects as a whole.

@Wildrosestands

agree

[TrutherD1]

IT could be a hoax. Never forget.

[MrDuffy81]

Way to be an activist. Even the people who are in denial are being effected in a positive way with this video. Keep documenting the truth! WHATEVER IT MAY BE...

[leskruth]

Is this real? Why is the sand so pristine? Looks like a collection of tar from various places...easy to contain? And I want to believe that this is a problem, but this video is lacking something.

There is no ocean for the turtle hatchlings to go into.

Hi I had posted a question asking if those tar balls were oily. They don't look it in the photo. They look more like Cole or Pete. But if they got oil all over the bag u put them in then that's oil from the horizon rig. I hope this nightmare ends soon!! I'm very sad....

[Wildrosestands]

THEIR HERE!

[landofthemarvelous]

@lsukitten

just a coincidence that huge tarballs just started washing up on florida's east coast since the disaster.

[landofthemarvelous]

Sorry lsukitten, i accidentally deleted your comment will trying to reply. please repost!. it said something about how the tar balls are not from the spill and they are probably peat or coal or something. i can assure you, they are sticky, flexible and stink of oil from a way s away. the tar ball smeared all over what I wrapped them in. i hope you are right though but it seems a little too strange. of course the coast guard is gonna say they arent from the spill, they work for bp!

[TheStormchaser1]

@landofthemarvelous You do realize that tar balls wash ashore every year. Tar balls been washing ashore since dawn of US History some 500 years ago. People should be more afraid of actual oil than tar balls.

Tar balls have been hitting the shores of the Persian Gulf for 30,000 years.

Vero Beach:

Saturday, a Vero Beach man and his wife discovered dozens of "tar pancakes" on the sand and in the water.

Michael and Jenny Risley said they made the discovery during their usual Saturday walk from Jaycee Beach to Humiston Beach.

He was concerned enough to bring the tar samples to a lifeguard at Jaycee Beach.

"They said they had been lifeguarding for 8 years and they had never seen anything like this on the beach before," said Risley.

7 inch tar balls in Stuart...

"People are finding it right up in the wet sand area and its kind of unusual because in the last few years we havent seen a lot of tar on our beaches," says Perry.

The last time beach visitors had to battle tar balls was back in 2002, a problem fisherman suspect came from an offshore drilling operation.

Key West to Marathon 8 inch ar balls:

Coast Guard Captain Patrick DeQuattro, at Coast Guard Station Key West, said the tar balls they found "range from the Dry Tortugas to 70 miles west to Key West to roughly the Marathon area, Bahia Honda State Park. Exposure to that type tar balls across approximately a hundred miles of the Florida Keys is unusual. I've been here a year. I've not had that type of exposure yet."
