Professional liar Eric Cheng is incapable of telling the truth and is also incapable of being interesting...Jianli - OW / ITAugust 20, 2008 at 07:26:02There are two occupational hazards associated with being paid to promote dive resorts, liveaboards and

Eric Cheng is one of those names. But what sets him apart is not so much that he lies about harassing sharks and other marine wildlife. It's how incredibly boring and unimaginative his stuff is. His worthless photos never rise above the "my holiday" snapshot
