of course that could happen. But u could always avoid THAT. First of all, always walk minimum 100 meters away from shore and then start from that point. I THiNK he was jumping close to the shore, which is dumb enough to do, agree?

not wearing a helmet, no flotation or vest device....
i still dont understand why ppl do this

how many of you would feel bad for a person who dies in motocycle wreck because not wearing a helmet? casaulty of darwanism...



i always find it weird how slow ppl are to react to situations. First, we have the person filming the thing. camera person just stands there videotapping. then you have a girl who doesnt know what to do.


for god sake, he was still attached to his kite, fully powered.
