Do they get back up when they stack at that sort of speed or is it a call to the local helicopter for an airlift to hospital? Damn that must hurt.

Just think about a pebble skimming across a lake.

Unless of course its rough, then imagine a lemming leaping from itchen bridge.

My mate thought it would be funny to keep going faster when I was wakeboarding a few years ago, bombed at about 40 - 45 mph and couldn't walk for a week. Wont be doing that again.
