photos of the day – water tubing
When I was a young’un water tubing meant your wee ass, and possibly your cousin’s too, was going to be dragged in a simple black rubber inner tube behind a boat at a leisurely pace. Mostly because that’s all the torque the poor tube could handle. Nowadays, though, what with the world gone all high-tech and shit, companies have created these inflatable demons that are specifically designed to thrill your ass to the point of severe heart palpitations and funny facials, as evidenced by the twisted visage of Rick Kosick above. Here are a few more hauling balls case studies from what was, alas, our last full day on “vacation” from the jackassworld office space…

The one thing you have to understand about Wolfie is that not only is he a 90-year-old man trapped in the body of a 42-year-old but he is absolutely terrified of the water. Not that you could tell either of those things by looking at this photo, though.
I’m no Stephen Hawking, so you do the math on what kind of physics it would take to make Preston Lacy’s body do something so Supermanny as this.
It doesn’t take a crackpot fortune teller to know that Dave and Todd’s future does not look good here.
Local legend, freshwater octopus catcher, and the day’s best tubing casualty—Sweet William.
