How stupid can you be?

Heres a little story of what could have happened to this idiot...
I work on 1000 foot freighters. Unfortunately last year we had a real life accident where a crew member went over the side while we were under way. The verdict was that the ship sucked him under he went right for the propellers... To this day he has not been found.

We all do/did dumb poop when we where younger. Hopefully he learned from it and doesn't do anything like it again/die.

@Philip Clemmons and I were riding our old superjets on the James River here in Richmond quite a few years ago. We saw a freighter coming up river, so we rode up to the shore, holding our superjets with our hands, and standing in less than knee deep water, we started getting pulled toward the freighter. That dude is grade A stupid. Lucky he lived through that!

The water displacement of a ship going through A river is truly mind blowing.

I knew not to get too close to a boat but i didnt realize it would pull that hard. I figured that ski should have had more than enough power to ride away until it shut off. Could he have not carved to the right and gotten oit of that draft? Sounded like the ski had a pipe.
