This thread again?  I think it was decided it was a volleyball player 
going down for a scoop...  But it does look more like a crab or 
something. <G>

these are two vollyball players.  One is in the air ready to block the ball,
the other is diving while hitting the ball.

Of course, I could be wrong...  =)

Looks like two people playing volleyball.  One ot them jumps (probably
spikes the ball) and the other one digs it.  Am I right??

Yep!  You are exactly right.  There's not much question to exactly what 
this is, is there?  I want to thank everyone who tried to fix my .sig :)

I want everyone to notice that the bottom fellow doesn't look ANYTHING
like a scorpion, or any other insect.

Again, thanks for your interpretation.

No, it is a spike by someone like me who catches a lot of air when they spike

(I'm only 5'2" and usually take a few seconds to hit the ground again).  The

person on the ground is trying their best to twart that most perfect execution

of a spike (Tall people hate being spiked on by someone my height, and are

usually quite suprised too. :)
