Pushing the human body is something I've always loved. I'm a pro powerlifter, so I completely understand the thrill of jumping levels and putting yourself on the line... But HOLY SHIT.

Unfortunately, I speak of the haters leaving comments about how there is no skill involved in this descent "just floating over a fall and hoping for the best" and such. Without a doubt, none of you have ever sat in a kayak and pushed yourself from a shore, let alone to any kind of limit. More than likely, leaving your uninformed comment will be your SECOND most important contribution to this planet...... the first being fertilizer when you pass and are burried.

[@HTMLguruLady2]

​@@sparrowhawk5673it has nothing to do with that. You have obviously never done serious Whitewater kayaking or waterfall jumps. The only thing that comes close to the exhilaration you feel doing a waterfall, is jumping off the side of a mountain with nothing but your squirrel suit. It's called living your life to the fullest, and enjoying every moment of it. If you truly believe what you wrote you have a very very sad and extremely boring life!

[@knotbumper]

About 6 years ago, (2015 I think) wife and I were visiting the falls, the flow was not a great as it was in this video, but we saw a kayak go over the falls. We thought we were witnessing a mistake/tragic accident. We watched the kayak paddle out of the pool and to shore. About 5 minutes later, a second one goes over the falls. Same result. Another 5 minutes go by and a third repeats the event. After the second one, we realized it was planned. People say I took crazy risks in my younger days. I was a chair bound conservative compared to these people.

Additional risk presents itself at 2:37 in the final drop segment. You can see the falls take a bump on the way down. The bump is within sight of anyone planning on doing the drop, but who would notice it until hitting it? Any unexpected bump on the drop could alter one's orientation from feet(-on-pegs) first to back-of-the-neck first, or sideways or whatever. It seems pretty obvious that he could have easily been killed if his orientation was suddenly bumped out of alignment. Very risky stuff!

I've never touched a kayak but I just want to understand the technique of this, even going over smaller big falls, how does it work? It just seems like they would hit the water so hard , how do you not get injured/killed going over a damn waterfall in a kayak hah

[@xichts11meter]

extreme paddlers like these guys receive injuries very often! broken noses, shoulders, etc... when you run a high waterfall, the most important thing is to get your boat vertical to the surface before hitting the water. otherwise you could easily broke your back or something else.........

[@georger.rmartinhat9366]

yhea back/spine injury looks guaranteed with this crazy shit. but if they drop vertical how do they figure they won't impact the bottom with the nose

[@mcnoobsterbaddabing6903]

George R.R Martin HAT Majority of kayakers survey the waterfalls they intend to leap off of beforehand. If you notice in the beginning of the video, the phone call he made to his buddy states that they have been watching the activity of the waterfall for the right time to do so. I'm sure they're well aware of the depth of the pool they will land in. Yes, the idea is to be vertical and before impact cross your arms and push your head against them into the hull of the kayak. This closes the gap in which the buoyance of the kayak will force against the kayaker upon impact.

[@Harry-rr4km]

The water at the bottom is churned up and air-ated, so the impact is softer. If you were to launch of a 180ft bridge with flat water underneath the impact would then definitely break the boat and the paddler.

[@intotheoutside1]

Respect to Tyler and Rush for what they do and what the contribute to the sport, having met Rush in Mexico briefly, he's a bloody good bloke and passionate film maker.

I was that daring once... Until a 500 ft. Slide down a glacier bowl behind Sniwmass Mountian ended that for me. Was a hell of a ride though,I basically fell while trying to free my backpack from me. Because there was a lightning storm came up on us while we were descending the bowl on the opposite side from the mountain. Didn't want a lightning rod on my back,but I missed one strap when I swung it free from me. So down I went on the slope,and man,I picked up speed. Somehow I stayed on my back and my arm went into a Crack in the ice and that's what stopped me dead... Almost cost me my arm,tore all the nerves in my shoulder,took 2 years to get my arm function back. And hyperextented both sciatic nerves in my back,. I got lucky,another 100 feet or so was a secondary cliff about 200 feet tall right into the bowl itself I the bottom. I would have shot off of there and landed in the bowl water,and that would have finished me,lol... This was before cell phones,we had nearly a day to walk out to get back to town to get help.. I was beat up for a while...ended my climbing career.... These young guys have both my respect,and my concern,lol... But in the end,bravo for pulling thus one off,just,wow!!!

And he did survive so... either he is very lucky or has perfect technique or both! Congrats!

Is there risk of getting caught/pinned under the falls?

@lytealight they have to have a good amount of control over themselves. If there kayak rotates over they fall flat on there back and are ejected under water probably breaking a few major bones in the back at that height though there isn't room for error. Becoming paraplegic would be the least of your worries

[@bigjimdanoon]

What a RUSH!!! Man! Gotta get in the water soon.

[@Hervinbalfour]

@ Rush. How long have you been kayaking and how did you learn/get involved? I've been white river rafting for many years but I've always wanted to get into Kayaking. I love the river and have respect for her but I'm ready to take it next level.

Dude which hand did Tyler break he broke his left hand I think but that is some crazy stuff.... My dad used to do stiff like that..

Toothpick races in gutters or that intro to Land of the Lost, comes to mind.

@HilburnMcCormick All I'm saying is the Wright Bros didn't learn to fly by sitting back and not risking their lives for the pursuit of progress. It's about the spirit.
