Mordhaussays...*quality
siftbotsays...Boosting this quality contribution up in the Hot Listing - declared quality by Mordhaus.
bareboards2says...This reminds me of my father and his brothers pastime down on the farm in rural Oklahoma. When the river would flood, they would go out into the river on intertubes, hang onto the top of a TREE sticking up out of the water, and garner a bumpy ride from the current.
Sliding where these kids are???? CHOOSING to go out into a flooded river???????
Their mothers would kill them if they knew....
antsays...Almost *eia with *wheels for these *kids, but *comedy!
siftbotsays...Adding video to channels (Comedy, Eia, Kids, Wheels) - requested by ant.
oritteroposays...This vid has a lot of comments on yt! Some of my favourites are:
On the whole they are split between the sentiment of "oh let them be kids" and they shouldn't do it either from traffic, open manhole covers, or whatever. I admit that leptospirosis wasn't my first thought when I saw the vid, but it's a nasty disease and well worth avoiding, and since it is transmitted via animal urine I can see how it could be a risk. Many of the comments pointed out that risk, as well as typhoid and other bacterial infections. Others said they did it too and were fine
