this was passed around last week. I have to go 42 mph to barefoot ski. No way you can step fast enough on plain water and hold yourself up even one step. Gravity wins.

My mind is totally and utterly blown that there are people who DO NOT immediately recognize advertisements when they see them, no matter how "viral" in nature



Tide? What's a tide? Man, it's 1000 miles to any ocean.

They're not denying the physics, we just don't know what physics they're hiding from us, whether it's rocks under the water or whatnot ...

Jesus-walk is still my ultimate goal with a kite :D



Yeah... I got a kite. Or two...

Your not going to believe it but I had a dream about a year ago I could do just that. Like they were doing it. Never heard of it before now. I probably shouldn't have told that.:lol::lol:

Its all BS in my book.

Why is it so popular? Liquid Mountaineering, how does something like that get around and get started anyway.

If you watch the running one till the end you can see that the water ripples are reacting to a solid surface just under the surface. Most likely a large sheet of plexi or something. They all run in at the same spot and at the same angle. The ones who fail enter at a differant spot.
