There was nothing right about what he did apart from getting that many on board.
I reckon the damage was done the moment the key went in.
Amazing how quickly it happens when most people think that water "softens" the blow.
Not good to see but good to see......if you "see" what I mean.

That's because his b*****s got stuffed into his gut. Don't ask me how that works.
B**ls into belly, sunnies stay on.
You need to ask a doctor about that one.

if you watch the slo-mo bit from 12sec's you'll see them fly right across the boat, hit the top of the screen and bounce back in.

The reason you didn't see the bloke at the back is because he wasn't a bloke for a few seconds.

If it works then it may be more comfortable than that godforsaken Gecko that works it's way into my brain after 2 minutes. Oh, and keeps my right ear full of water after a MOB thing. I'd rather wear RayBans and be kicked in the goolies than put up with crappy Geckos that fit everybody except me. There.

And I reckon that's what caused the boat to hook. If he had kept the power on the bow wouldn't have dug in...
