Saw this a few years ago - really amazing to watch - sadly it is playing really jerky - even with my 20mb!!! I have the real file somewhere I downloaded - nice to see it again. I wish youtube would let you download the originals!!!

Ok on mine too. It makes forgetting to release your trailer straps when launching seem kinda minor.

Fine on my entry level Dell that has had a plethora of internet junk downloaded by teenage daughter.

I may have the original mpeg at work, it goes on for a while as some bloke with a 70s haircut tries to put out the fire.

We did once see a SeaDoo owner tie his boat to a bollard with the stern line then drive off up the slip where upon the the rope snapped, he repeated this three times then un did the winch strap.

This happened Aug 11, 2001 in the Welland Canal in Ontario. Fortunately and amazingly, everyone on the crew survived. Here is a link to the story.

Apparently when the Transportation Safety Board released it's summary from the incident inquiry, one of the key recommendations they made was that the bridge operating company require breathalyzer samples from their employees before they go on shift.

Perhaps this could spawn a new organization called MADBOY (Mothers Against Drunken Bridge Operating Yahoos).

This happened about 40 miles from my city place. The bridge was closed for about a year while they rebuilt it.... Bit of a pain for those who crossed it every morning going to work...
