I love how people are still walking around knee deep in water.

The words “Gnarly” and “Sick” come to mind.
Haha oh yeah I read about this guy yesterday in the newspaper. Dope stuff.
I WATCHED IT on Mexican news at my GF house. It didn’t look like he was even being pulled by anything for most of the video. I’m guessing he gets pulled just enough to get the right momentum then goes for it the rest of the way.
GF said the cops didn’t even try to stop them, there really wasn’t anyone using the square where he did a lot of this (being it knee deep in water) and they were like, “yeah, its pretty cool”
we dutch are surely crazy
That looks like an ass load of fun.
He’s wearing red bull gear, so you know this is EXTREME! YEAH!
That does look fun. Were those gondolas on the piazza itself?
Well that’s one cool way of dealing with flooding… I wonder if anyone did this after Katrina…
@...Phyreblade: Prolly, but the liberal media never shows the good things.
@...nyokki: Indeed. Or the cops were like “Get out of there you hooligans, waterboarding in flooded peoples back yard is illegal/unsafe/tresspassing/etc…”
I beginning to realize we have a lot of wet blanket folk here in the states…
This is fucking venice.
Fuck you dutch fuckhead. YOur canals smell like shit and so does your city. No amount of rock-and-roll enthusiasm and bad humour and pot can undo that.
