Talk about a tough lie...

I was browsing through Flickr looking for pictures of golf balls and golf courses, and came across this one. There were no comments on it as of yet...apparently no one else finds the predicament too interesting. Would you try to hit out of this? Or just take an unplayable lie.
I remember sometime last month, watching the Shark Shootout at Tiburon, John Daly had some ridiculous lie in some very thick fescue. The line he took would send the ball over a large body of water. So I figured, for sure, unplayable, drop it...whatever. But, he walked up, and took a huge whack at it. Ended up in a green side trap...Gotta be lucky sometimes.
