flying boat tube

[blaque]

I posted this inside another thread but thought id throw it out here for anyone who hasnt seen this thing.............for those slow....hot afternoons of fishing. Who needs disney world anymore with stuff like this on the market. Ive looked into them and it seems the manufacturer doesnt offer it currently........but they are out there on the usual e-bay, craigslist sites.

Looks like fun.

 

Lots of painfull wipeouts if I where to try it though.

Pretty sure you can't buy one new because they are illegal to sell- deemed too dangerous after a few deaths!

Alltogether now. QUADRAPALEGIC

 

The people old enough to ride one of them, should also be old enough to know better.

 

Up until now, i thought cigarettes were the only thing designed to kill you

But it tells you right in the video not to fly higher than you are willing to fall?

I bet it would work even better behind my truck.

 

 

 

Here, hold my beer for a minute................

I saw one of these flying death carpets in action...a couple of years ago, likely before the ban.

 

It was surprising to see how fast the boat was travelling and how high the inflatable rose...and then shocking to see how hard they hit the water.

 

No sirens followed so they must have been ok...very fortunate outcome...could have been B A D.
