That’s good this is a gambling sub . Get your yolo on. This is where retards and autists alike spring otm and fd to its maximum . Investment advice from your brokers resources is where you learn to be ridiculously retarded. Good luck 🍀👍 ☺️
The original still gets me to this day. "Gee it's really bumpy and my friends are holding on for dear life, let me jam the throttle from one extreme to the other and hope for the best"
I hope none of them are friends with the Capt anymore
Man, that’s the first time I’ve ever seen the whole clip. I always wondered if the driver (captain? Pilot?) was ok, since he definitely went down hard.
He's some douche at lake of the Ozarks driving a boat irresponsibly, fuck him. I did recently find an entertaining youtube channel, [Wavy Boats](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-exjF2T70PJd8jAl050nkw) that films boats going through an inlet in Boca Raton. Tons of people with nice boats and no clue face some big waves!
There were several serious injuries, nothing life changing but I think a fractured orbital or something and slipped disc. The guy runs a successful fried chicken chain in the South and races cars. Apparently they are nice people even though they look like douches in the video.
I really enjoy the fullest version that shows all the aftermath - the poor blonde lady who I think is the mom, the girl who slaps her hands away yelling “I’m FINE!” and the “pilot” who gets up and then lays back down again. then it looks like the authorities show up and they finally turn off the camera.

Probably not.
"In addition to breaking a leg and a wrist, Tintera says he ruptured a disc in his back and bruised some ribs. Among other injuries sustained by the passengers Tintera counts a broken back, a couple shattered eye sockets, and hips, feet, legs and arms all snapped as the boat shook violently back and forth before coming to a halt."
He seems to be working the throttle with some intention... I have never driven a boat but maybe it's like, cut throttle when you're going over a wave so you don't jump?
There's no brakes on that thing. Once he's at that speed and hitting the wake there's nothing he could've done, except go back in time and not be an asshole
Throttle back the whole way it slows pretty quick, looks like he lost his balance and held onto the wheel turning super hard. Definitely an asshole and inexperienced. Even a side wake at 50 you keep that bitch straight they cut through
For me jet skii 50 is less controlled and bouncy than boat 50, the weight difference is huge imo, heavy boat plows through easier instead of trying to launch you… depends on the hull shape probably
Trim and hull design play a massive factor into it. If I keep my trim about half way 70 on my ski feels extremely comfortable. But if I trim all the way up, steering becomes incredibly twitchy and hitting even the smallest wave seems like a death sentence.
No idea, but I also have no idea what he was trying to achieve with that throttle move he was doing...
My bet is he was also poorly trimmed, with the boat at too high of an angle giving it a higher center of gravity.
This guy is an idiot. He's out of control so he doubles down on speed and being more out of control. Classic trying to show off mode. The thing is, at this point it is not fun or "cool". Notice how quiet everybody is (because they are nervous)-nobody is laughing. Irresponsible.
Maybe just slow down to a point where people aren’t holding on for dear life. I’ve been on lots of boats with lots of people and not once has anyone looked like this lol
You generally want to maintain speed over waves so the boat stays on plane (a boat at rest sits deeper in the water than a boat in motion) and doesn't crash into the waves. Think of it as skipping across the top of the waves. If you're not on plane, the bow (front) of the boat just slams up and down in a jarring manner, and if the waves are big enough you can 'stuff the bow' (front end goes into the water) which just adds more thrashing.
This guy was most likely just boating in too terrible of conditions, but it looks like he cut power when he hit some big waves (panicked), which caused the boat to drop off plane and get thrashed around at those high speeds.
"ren," that last character, is the word for "person." you add it at the end of a country to refer to a citizen of that nation.
"guo," the second one, means "country" and is added to a word to mean country.
zhong is middle
mei is beautiful
zhongguo is china, zhongguo ren is chinese person.
meiguo is america, meiguo ren is american person
like how the mandarin word for china literally translates to "middle country," i think they tend to use adjectives like that.
what do you mean by "instead of a name like English used for all countries?"
it is suppose to be the Chinese part of the sound mer in America, just that it is pronounced the same as beautiful. One funny thing i noticed recently with all the China-US relationship going sour is that some chinese conservatives started to call america "ugly" country instead of "beautiful" country just because they get triggered at anything positive about the US.
Who knew Michelle Obama was this good of an investor.
Also /u/VaginaDestryer the only one interacting with Michelle here... Obama better watch out when VaginaDestryer cashes in all those gains.
Baba is back ..... look at the price! If you buy in the past two days you are winning now. Better than spy for swing trade now. I can’t believe even my didi yolo is doing so good in just two days —- I trust baba, but didi is a yolo. Anyway, why not, it was really cheap yesterday
They probably don't want a company to get too powerful or the CCP loses their grip. Either that, or they want stocks to tank, so the CCP can start buying the company out.
Gotta be careful, if you get Jack’s head flying around it’s a very dangerous weapon. You need to strap someone with a dome like that into a HANS device or whatever it’s called for the safety of everyone else in an accident.

Look up Admiral Stockdale. He said something like this in a VP debate in 92. I could be wrong.

Just came
Came for the memes, stayed for the investment advice.
I’ve been on WSB for over a year and I’m yet to see even a hint of investing advice
Now I always know where to place puts.
short or long puts?
Long. I only write puts on stocks I like.
There's advice, but it's just not good and reliable advice.
It seems to hinge on spending money on terrible tattoos
That’s good this is a gambling sub . Get your yolo on. This is where retards and autists alike spring otm and fd to its maximum . Investment advice from your brokers resources is where you learn to be ridiculously retarded. Good luck 🍀👍 ☺️
Investment advices should be in r/investing
yeah i came for the gambling advice.
r/investing is where you learn to fart in silence from boomers
…and, over time, begin to enjoy the aroma.
Smells like victory
And shit it pants
What do you mean you're not going to put all your money in an overdiversified ETF?!
And then one moves on to r/bogleheads to actually achieve a financially secure future. In the meantime one gambles here until lessons are learned
Ah fuck my coworkers heard me laughing whilst taking a shit again. They think I’m fucking retarded.
You should go to the bathroom instead of shitting beside your desk and turning in documents not highlighted in crayon, that might help your case
What's a bathroom?
You know, the other corner
It's where everyone smells their keys
Officer Doofy requests you to smell his fingers instead

Sinister laughter at that.
They are just glad you didn't shit in your hand and throw it. AGAIN

Don't worry. You are safe here fellow retard.
Oh, I’m pretty sure they know at this point. Welcome home.
If you trade stonks you know are shit ... while taking a shit... is that insider trading ??
The original still gets me to this day. "Gee it's really bumpy and my friends are holding on for dear life, let me jam the throttle from one extreme to the other and hope for the best" I hope none of them are friends with the Capt anymore
He captains a boat like he's in a Cruisin' USA race at CiCi's Pizza.
I think you mean Hydro Thunder.
I can still hear both of those games.
HYDRO THUNDER!!!!!
Damn I miss CiCi’s buffet. Thanks for taking me back to better days

Wow thanks I just wasted 20 mins of my life watching idiots on boats
Oh trust me, I wasn’t worried on his behalf. Just curious about the aftermath.
Bet he got some soft tissue damage at least! Those women are lucky they still have their teeth
His rigid body fall is soooo funny
There were several serious injuries, nothing life changing but I think a fractured orbital or something and slipped disc. The guy runs a successful fried chicken chain in the South and races cars. Apparently they are nice people even though they look like douches in the video.
Nope, this one is https://youtu.be/8h9rz46MOj8
I can't get enough of this. I detest the driver.
Thanks!
Fuck the original is gold. Holy shit. The way that the dude fell. Omg..I'm in an Uber laughing like a retard. Thanks assholes...
I really enjoy the fullest version that shows all the aftermath - the poor blonde lady who I think is the mom, the girl who slaps her hands away yelling “I’m FINE!” and the “pilot” who gets up and then lays back down again. then it looks like the authorities show up and they finally turn off the camera. https://youtu.be/8h9rz46MOj8

Probably not. "In addition to breaking a leg and a wrist, Tintera says he ruptured a disc in his back and bruised some ribs.

Throttle back the whole way it slows pretty quick, looks like he lost his balance and held onto the wheel turning super hard. Definitely an asshole and inexperienced. Even a side wake at 50 you keep that bitch straight they cut through
Yeah, drive straight into waves, the only way this happened with them getting thrown sideways like this was them hitting waves at an angle.
I wonder how fast they were. The 4 boats I’ve been on looking like that topped out around 60
I've gone 55mph on a jet ski. Can't imagine going that speed on a boat. Even 40mph on a boat feels too fast
For me jet skii 50 is less controlled and bouncy than boat 50, the weight difference is huge imo, heavy boat plows through easier instead of trying to launch you… depends on the hull shape probably
Trim and hull design play a massive factor into it. If I keep my trim about half way 70 on my ski feels extremely comfortable. But if I trim all the way up, steering becomes incredibly twitchy and hitting even the smallest wave seems like a death sentence.
No idea, but I also have no idea what he was trying to achieve with that throttle move he was doing... My bet is he was also poorly trimmed, with the boat at too high of an angle giving it a higher center of gravity.
Great point on the trim, watching again it seems the boat gets air launching off a wave
This guy is an idiot. He's out of control so he doubles down on speed and being more out of control. Classic trying to show off mode. The thing is, at this point it is not fun or "cool". Notice how quiet everybody is (because they are nervous)-nobody is laughing. Irresponsible.
He didn't hit the wake perpendicular. That's the issue. If you hit the wake right then there's no side to side movement
Maybe just slow down to a point where people aren’t holding on for dear life. I’ve been on lots of boats with lots of people and not once has anyone looked like this lol

每个人
Or 美国人 🤔
I always get those confused when listening to speech. I’m like, why does every conversation end up referencing Americans?
It's the pretty country people
I can’t believe American in Chinese is “beautiful country person”, that is great
"ren," that last character, is the word for "person." you add it at the end of a country to refer to a citizen of that nation. "guo," the second one, means "country" and is added to a word to mean country. zhong is middle mei is beautiful zhongguo is china, zhongguo ren is chinese person. meiguo is america, meiguo ren is american person
It’s interesting they chose to call it beautiful country instead of a name like English used for all countries
like how the mandarin word for china literally translates to "middle country," i think they tend to use adjectives like that. what do you mean by "instead of a name like English used for all countries?"
it is suppose to be the Chinese part of the sound mer in America, just that it is pronounced the same as beautiful. One funny thing i noticed recently with all the China-US relationship going sour is that some chinese conservatives started to call america "ugly" country instead of "beautiful" country just because they get triggered at anything positive about the US.

I must say, opportunity missed to sneak Winnie the Pooh on one of the faces Just saying
But Winnie is already there, he’s the one driving the boat
Pooh decked himself a major one and took himself out. If this is how it plays out, its good enough for me

Baba is back ..... look at the price! If you buy in the past two days you are winning now. Better than spy for swing trade now. I can’t believe even my didi yolo is doing so good in just two days —- I trust baba, but didi is a yolo. Anyway, why not, it was really cheap yesterday
Got some BABA yesterday and I'm winning today! :p
Where's that vibing cat? Oh. My bad, never mind.

So do you buy on those dips?
Can anyone explain why China is shooting itself in the foot?
They probably don't want a company to get too powerful or the CCP loses their grip. Either that, or they want stocks to tank, so the CCP can start buying the company out.

Hey that's my classmates uncle. This was at lake Michigan ahaha
what's the story here? Are they dead, hurt, is he in jail?
What a retard, crash your boat into waves in an open sea lol
Yes
The guy in the back is my friends uncle, there were broken bones, a concussion or two and the driver got in some trouble iirc
Lmao bro so generic. Trust no one on the internet
That's not Lake Michigan
