Isn't the jet ski supposed to stop if you fall of?
Oh that's right only if you follow the proper procedure and attach the safety leash...
One in a million the guy got hit - sure
One in a million the jet ski took off due to a 'malfunction' - unlikely
Have seen this happen before.
A runaway ski at Seaworld crashed into the audience and hurt some spectators.
The excuse the rider gave for not wearing the safety kill switch leash was "we're professionals, we know what we're doing"
Well IMHO a "professional" should act like a professional and follow saftey precautions to set a good example to the amateurs.
There's no just excuse for this and I hope the poor bugger gets properly compensated for his injuries, pain and suffering, medical expenses, etc....
