Baller Marco Posted July 8, 2012 Baller Share Posted July 8, 2012 Probably trying to jump the wake and didn't see the tube. It almost happened to me once while I was skiing; had to let go of the rope... http://content.usatoday.com/communities/entertainment/post/2012/07/ushers-stepson-in-critical-condition-after-boating-accident/1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Stevie Boy Posted July 9, 2012 Baller Share Posted July 9, 2012 A work buddy of mine got a telephone call that his daughter had been involved in a jet ski accident, he immediately flew from UK to Aus, where he found out that his daughter was in hospital with the most horrendous internal injuries, apparently she was helping her boyfriend who was towing some kids on a banana with a jet ski, when they had finished, the boyfriend asked her to unhook the banana, not aware that she had got off the jet ski to do it, she said ok and without looking he just took off, the blast from the jet unit was so powerful that it entered orifices and caused enormous damage, to the point of twisting her gut etc, she may have to where a bag for the rest of her life, 22 years old ! They are lethal bits of equipment, in all ways, plus you have the added danger of the numskulls who ride them with no thought for others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Fatroll Posted July 9, 2012 Baller Share Posted July 9, 2012 Usher's stepson died on a tube that was hit by a jet ski. Both tubes and jetskis continuously prove to be dangerous and insanely annoying on any skiable water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
