Just to show how stupid jet skiers are. no respect for other boaters. think they are invisible. never obey any rules. But this cuts the cake: http://www.kptv.com/video/13645137/index.html

I didn't see any bouys telling them that was there. That actually looks like fun. I would try it. Not with someone on the back though.

Dirty D--I don't think after that jump they will be able to breed anymore. I wonder if they tried to get back up--wouldn't that be fun--I also think if the video was being shot that close, they did it on purpose and have probably done it in the past--no I do not own a jet ski

That happened on lake lewisville. Right now it is 15ft over normal lake level. THey didnt know that was a spill way area. Belive it or not but the landed on concrete. I dont know how they got on the water because the lake is closed. That was very stupid though

Of course the tax payers payed the bill to rescue them. I do notice that the people wh jumped the spillway haven't been on the news...I wonder why? Next time leave them in the water....it is Darwin at its best.

bhog, lake lewisville is not closed.... they have 1 ramp in the colony that is open, and if your boat is already on the lake, of course you can go out... it does look like they did it on purpose though. how could you not see a HUGE drop right in front of you? and there are a ton of boueys (sp?) up a hundred yards or so in front of the spillway.

If your not paying attention and look far ahead like that on the water it doesn't look like a a drop, until you get closer. In the news the reporter said they ignored the warning signs and kept going, weird I thought that all jet skiers followed the rules of the water

it was not staged, the guys filming were there to look at the water level above the spillway. This lake was 20+ feet low last year. In the video, you can see that only the tops of the marker bouys are showing, and I'm sure these people had no clue where they were. I heard that guy broke his back. I bet the Ambulance Chasers palms are sweating.

This happened at dusk on Lewisville. You can not tell that the spillway is there if you don't know it's there. The woman was driving and it's the dude you can see fly head over heels after they hit. The water was only a few inches deep at the point they hit and it is solid concrete so no - I don't think any of you would really want to try it. To give you an idea how high the lake is I can usually drive my boat under the I-35/Lake Lewisville bridge & have about 7 to 10 feet between me and the bottom of the bridge. I looked at it the other day and there's only a foot or so of clearance between the water & the bridge.

Kyle, I personally thought the part where two dumb ass jet skiers went over hauling ass over the falls onto concrete was pretty funny. Two down....
