    Nirvana’s “Nevermind” is as iconic for its songs as it is for the picture on the album cover. The naked baby boy swimming underwater chasing a dollar bill on a fish hook was number six on Rolling Stone’s list of greatest albums of all time. But 30 years later, that image is now embroiled in controversy. Spencer Elden is now claiming his parents never signed a release and that the nude image of him used on the cover constituted child pornography. Elden’s parents were reportedly paid just $200.

    Video shows the moment a young girl enjoying the ocean at a South Carolina beach sees a shark’s fin coming out of the water and approaching her.

    Sara Oister, 11, was boogie-boarding in the water at Myrtle Beach before the terrifying encounter.

    “I was taking video of her, and all of a sudden, she starts running out of water,” said Sara’s mom, Nicole Oister. “She said she saw a fin coming up out of the water towards her … I looked back on the video to see if I had captured it, I did.”
