F That.
Perfect technique, no sore back there. Penciled straight into the pillow.
I'd be cut in half. Lol
Def did
My teeth hurt watching this.
The trick is in not using them to catch your paddle
Looks fun. The surface of the water is broken by the falls and the kayak. They've got time to brace, and a waterfall of that size will have created a deep bowl, so they're likely not hitting bottom.
I'm sure though that pressure on sinuses, ear, etc could be an issue.
Can you imagine if you didn’t plan your run well enough and you unintentionally came upon this? Nightmare
IT DO GO DOWN
It do
Yo, backup bro
Dude, seriously back it up.
BRO, GET TF BACK, NOW!
OMG, WE'RE GONNA DIIIIEEE!
Oddly enough I may have sustained injuries just watching this.
Salto Newen. Chile.
Don't your legs/knees get a huge thud when you do that? How do you even brace for something like that?
Your forehead, brain, eyes, sinuses, skin, face, jaw, teeth, neck, spine, taste, olfactory, vascular and nervous systems too! You pay for it quite dearly in later life, I've learned.
Yeah when I was young and being warned about doing some of the high impact/risk things I did I just thought that 30-40 years is so far away that it would be forever before it caught up with me. Well it caught up much faster than that and that 30 years is also coming up extremely fast.
I would love to go back in time and knock all that shit off because if I already have spent months of time barely functioning due to severe back pain in my early 40's then I can't imagine what is in store for me as I get older and older.
We do a lot of things when we're young that we pay for later in life.
All of my friends that went into the military have chronic physical and mental issues.
Yeah, the white water is a bit of a softer landing, but you’re not getting away from this without some bruises. Hell, I’m all bruised even after pool practice.
This was actually a pretty soft landing. All of the air bubbles at the bottom of the waterfall break up the surface of the water, so there’s very little force to the initial impact.
Freestyle Ski jumpers use the same principle to practice tricks by jumping into a pool full of air bubbles. https://youtu.be/AHu9DhFrHA8?si=lpTyL6k6viJnj5XD
The kayack has foot pedals he's basically standing on when he goes over. The spray skirt keeps the water out of the kayak long enough for it to float back up.
Fuck, I have a hard time getting up from the couch, fuuuuuuck that lol
How many gallons/liters of water went up his nose. Also. That’s the best yahooo I’ve heard all year!
Yeah, I'll think I'll pass.
Oh cool, we found the Stage: NOPE rapids! 🤣
I've seen steeper boat ramps!
Not sure but that looks like Toketee Falls, Oregon. There was also someone in a yellow kayak on YouTube that went down those falls as well. If I am wrong about location I do apologize in advance
This is an absolute dream line, not sure why your back hurts
So, this video is real then?!
Google other similar videos and judge :)
Video shorts are great timewasters...
For some bigger thrills watch Tao Berman
Didn‘t one guy pass out and nearly die after that fall? I think there is a youtube documentary where his parter has to safe him after he went unconscious and was underwater for a few minutes.
I don't think it's this one, but yes, falls of this size are notorious for injury on even pros. The guy taking the plunge is Aniol Serrasolses, one of the best shit runners out there.
AI bullshit gets faker by the minute and the tards keep lapping it up
YouTube Aniol Serrasolses, this isn’t even the biggest waterfall he’s sent.
