This is why I have never elected to do this. Waverunner, dunebuggy, zipline, yes, but not this........espcially anywhere in Mexico.

Actually...
Actually the news is from Florida, not Mexico :-)

Though, considering the obesity issues the US has, it may be a good idea to stay on the ground in your big fat trucks. ;-)

Did it once, was a lot of fun. Needed some liquid encouragement before I did it. Now I remember why.
I will parasail before I ride a motorcycle. :D
Since my accident, I will not take the chance of trying/riding any of these things:
Bicycle, motorcycle, scooter, unicycle (yes I actually had and rode one. We used to play basket ball on them in high school!), skateboard, pogo stick, horseback riding..
I’ll still get on a Jet ski when I go to Mexico to “feed my need for speed”
The bungee went broke, no one is minding the store. :) I have parasailed a lot but that bungee always looked a little iffy to me. :shock:
\"The bungee went broke\". Guess they ran out of rubber bands. :lol:
