1. They didn't get the good ones of him in the water......

he must have looked too good....and body surfed too well! You know CNN.......

2. wow...what a nightmare that would be...

having people snap pictures of you wherever you go...and of course having that many people photographing my backside while I'm in a swimsuit would just be too much!!

8. No kidding. I'd never leave my hotel room.

And all the people on the beach are staring at him. He handles it well -- I guess you get used to it.

I definitely could not handle fame.

3. Squished CNN video, as usual.

Why would they possibly release only that segment?

I guarantee they have great footage of him bodysurfing and playing with the kids.

4. He looks great, not skinny, it's a refreshing image, but there is paparazzi stalking vibe

and he deserves some respect, he is not a celeb to "catch" in intimate moments. Oh well let's hope he gets used to it as the next POTUS.

5. Dude, Its The Freakin Plate Lunch That Is Putting Meat On Him

You eat some of these bad boys, and you aren't going to stay skinny for long:
