  The Top New Videos list is always full of interesting, current videos. It is always recommended that you have a look through the Top New Videos, but also have a look at these:
  - Upcoming Unsifted Videos - active video submissions that neither are published to the front page nor archived to the submitter's personal queue
- Have you seen a really funny, surprising, scary, interesting, cute or in any other way extra good quality video?
  Post and share it here - VideoSift is the best video aggregator on the Web, where we share, discuss, promote, and interact with the best videos out there on the web. Post it here, and share it with the large community of video-interested users. And - you are guaranteed to find more very good videos here already!
  Mind you, we only share videos you discover that someone else has made; if you "self link," by posting a video you have made, have posted or have interests in, you risk the ban hammer - read the posting guidelines before posting. The sift is NOT for promoting your own videos - it is for sharing videos others have made.

How the hell did he stop so fast @ 1:30? This is just nucking futs.

Probably with some version of a “reverse bucket”....

Ah... much like reverse thrust on aircraft?

I will sleep well tonight due to your research.

That could have turned out badly if there had been any paddlers in the canyon.

BSR

I don't know. Did you see how fast that thing stopped? Plus, I'm sure he has a horn on that thing.

There was a lot of discussion about that in the YouTube comments. What made sense was one commenter who said when he had run into similar situations out kayaking he had plenty of warning because of the motor noise and it was simple to pull over until the jet boat passed. He wasn’t so sure about how electric boats would announce themselves.

You couldn't find it in your heart to back me up on the horn thing? 🙁

Horn? I assume for spearing kayakers, I like the idea.

OH SHIT JET BOAT JOUSTING!
