How many of you can walk on water?

Saw this picture today online and I honestly don't think it's fake. It is amazing though that it got snapped at such a perfect time. From the story the guy ended up with a fractured pelvis.

What else was he going to do? Got to try!!

Talk about being in the right place at the right time to get a picture!

Amazing timing for a great picture. From the position he is in just prior to smacking the water, I'm surprised all he got was a fractured pelvis!!

Amazing he had time to remove his helmet,googles and one shoe!:rotfl:

I could be wrong but the shoe in the air dont match the one hes wareing and the paint brush beteen him and the shoe makes me think its a photo shop pic

Well, I just wondering where the capsule is if there was one. The other boat has a shadow. But the one in the air doesn't seem to have a shadow. Although it shows the part of the boat facing you to be dark and not lit up by the bright sunlight.

Here is the link to the story. Whether it's true or not I leave up to your own thoughts.

I don't understand why he wasn't wearing some type of restraint or harness to keep him in the boat. would think it would be mandatory safety item

[BuddyRich]

That'd amazing in that case and he lucky he didn't get hurt worse

I'm only good for one step, then I'm done.

I think it is for real. It is probably one shot out of several per sec shot by an electric or video camera. If you look you can see the scene is back lit and the shadow of the boat is directly under the bow. In the open boats the driver is not wearing a harness because you do not want to be trapped under it when it lands upside down. I have a tape showing a series of these accidents and you would not believe some of the things that happen. There are a few shots of the driver going through the side of the boat. The old jet drive boats used to make an abrupt 90 degree turn when the engine or pump blew.
