Fun while it lasted??

Watch out for that first speed bump

Short trip, but at least it will be painful.

Hey! Watch this.

Shwew! For a second there, I thought it was a Zamboni…

Almost sure that’s on TikTok.

Going, going, gone.

FAFO

What can go wrong?!

Once upon a time, there was two guys that wanted to get on YouTube by water skiing… in a pool… behind a lawn tractor! Their video went viral! The guy driving the lawn tractor went on to do things in the movie industry. The guy doing the skiing was buried in the local cemetery with the one-half of the diving board that survived the feat, as his headstone.

Hold my Beer……

Wee did stupid things like that as kids. Towing a skateboader behind a bicycle was one!

Um, Bleeb? Shouldn’t you be holding that guy’s beer?

I think I saw this once while driving thru Alabama.

I do not see this ending well.

what could possible go wrong… :\

When Red Necks win the lottery. Here, hold my beer.

Hey y’all! Watch this!

Stupid is as stupid does.

I think I saw this posted on Darwin Awards.

What could go wrong?

I think I see a Darwin Award candidate.

I love cartoons, but can’t get past… not enough speed to stay on top of the water. Will only be an underwater tow.

Famous last words “Watch this Everyone”.

Nothing good ever comes out of “Hold my beer and watch this”

let’s see…what’s the phrase for this?? Hmm…oh, yeah…“culling the herd”!

To some people, after a few (too many) beers, this would look perfectly normal.

..where we goin’ with this?!?!?

Oh Deere. :)

Hilarious! Now Ski-daddle!

Finally! Something we never tried doing as kids!

PSA: “These are professionals… do not try this at home!”

This is why women live longer than men on average….

That’s all well-and-good…until you run out of waterway…or yard.

Ha! They wouldn’t be the first to try this. Have you ever seen videos of people skiing in a canal/irrigation ditch, being pulled by a horse or a four wheeler?

They should show this kind of video on TVs in Emergency Room waiting areas.

and another Mensa member bites the dust…

That bored huh?

Short ride!

surprised einstein didn’t start on the diving board
