bad launch in the surf

Saw this on Facebook, I don't know how old it is or if it's been on here before. This guy is having a hard time of it.

Perfect example of why you SHOULD NEVER stand between your kayak and the beach

That started out kinda funny, got pathetic, then got a bit scary. That guy had NO place being any where near a surf launch. He couldn't even stand up let alone control his boat. I got a feeling both the second and third guy may have never even paddled a kayak before cause it looked like they didn't know their left from right. I hope no one makes this guy's mistake. Mike

I've been in rough surf before where in no time at all I was so tired I could hardly stand. It happens fast. I think you really need to be careful because that ocean isn't too forgiving.

I was a little nervous opening that as I was sure one of you guys had video taped ME

I guess what bothered me watching it was that someone was filming it rather than helping the guy, he could have been seriously hurt.

Ask Tony. He will probably just keep filming. How else will everybody know how not to do it.

The comments in youtube indicate that the one who filmed was disabled

Another reason why launching DRUNK is a bad idea.

It doesn't take much to flip a kayak.


It would be fun to make one of these videos on purpose

Don't forget the dorsal fins circling in the background.
