Terrible! It seems that people think that operating these things are like riding a bicycle. Having to bury a child is the worst pain imaginable.

[@Kimock7Autism]

Parents? allowing a 13 year old to ride back a 16 year old?? Would you do that on a motorcycle? Neither of that age belong on a waveruuner which can top 55mph - my condolences to family

Ive lost count of how many deaths/murders have happened in the last 24hrs in this country.

[@absolutetuber]

You’re counting them all? Impossible task.

@@absolutetuberimagine millions didn’t die every day?? Bizarre

[@absolutetuber]

@@mertonallowicious that’s been happening for hundreds of years. Why are you acting like death is a new trend?

[@mertonallowicious]

@@absolutetuber I think you didn’t catch my meaning, I was agreeing w you

[@MistaNoName223]

Damn, RIP those kids. They must have been going extremely fast, and had no proper breakdown of the lake or how to use a wave runner from the parent/guardian.

[@fkUTube449]

One article I read said about 60mph and the girls never turned away from the boat, just zoomed right into it

[@chipmerrill5964]

Another preventable tragedy. A reminder of just how precious life is. Live life to it's fullest, slow down and try to enjoy it. Rest in Peace.

I know one of the people in the accident she went to my middle school

Very sorry

I knew the 13 year old. She was in my Girl Scout troop

A day of summer fun turned tragic. An autopsy? They just love to desecrate the body.

[@hoosierdaddy8002]

Had a friends brother get hit by a boat on a jet ski. He`s paralyzed from the neck down.

[@danettejachalke5818]

Very sad

I’m sure he’d rather you hadn’t 😢

Jet skis are not toys, inexperienced people climb on them every weekend and haul ass

[@JShady7620]

That’s the whole point of a jet ski. The thrill of flying across the water at breakneck speeds.

[@dentalnovember]

Autopsy? What part of colliding with a cruiser at high speed was uncertain?

[@FlightX101]

Unmm insurance??? They arent going to pay anything out without medical certified proof of the cause death

Elle was my close friend.

We had a canoe when I was that age and it was fun.

People keep getting hit on these small water vessels.

There had been too many drowning last few weeks

[@jacole1234]

Why are they reporting this to me? I live 2000 miles away. Stop capitalizing on tragedy. The news is disgusting nowadays. Have some respect for those who passed, and their families.

[@ALLforROME]

The only thing more ridiculous about you receiving this news from far away is that you're complaining/commenting about it! 🖕😶👈

[@Total_Recall1984]

you can just not comment on it or even watch it. That sounds like a better idea.

[@fkUTube449]

You most likely frquent other news posts, the algoritm picks up on that and just reccomends you anything it thinks might keep you scrolling longer. Welcome to the internet.

What does this mean?

[@Scratchingforcash]

@@so396it means exactly what they said. “My daddy will buy me another one” “Go faster who cares “Don’t worry it’s fine, we got insurance “ “It’s not mine, who cares” “Move, were coming”

[@so396]

@Scratchingforcash i mean, dont you find it disrespectful to be commenting that? I know that one of the girls was genuinely a happy and fun person, but wasn't the kind of spoiled person you think of her to be. She had money, but I don't think she took advantage of that for the negative. Even if you are trying to blame, keep those thoughts to yourself, please. I get that these are youtube comments, and people say whatever, but it still isn't right.
