    Zipline Catapult - Bluehouse Skis - YouTube

    Happy New Year, Planet.

    This video just sent to me by a friend. . .anybody know where this was? Not sure I understand what / how this is done (or if I'd agree it is even safe) but they're clearly having a good time

    Risks:

    1. drop early and hit the rocks below
    2. with skis, crush some disks upon impact
    3. smack the boat at the end of the line
    4. your fat buddy drops on top of you

    Otherwise...looks like fun....except the long walk up.

      yup. 0:30 it almost looks like the second person on the zip line got hung up on the rocks. . .and later on it looked like somebody landed on the guy with the skis.

        That was at 42 and I think he got him.

        The act at 46 is stupid. The biggest risk for minor injuries is two people hitting each other. That's what I've determined from "toobing." Other risk there is standing guy hits his head on the slide and then has the "talk then die" syndrome.

        With the skis on, if the rope broke when you were way up there....you better hope to land on your back.
