I was thinking of buying a jet ski but if they are that much hassle to recover then glad I never bothered.

What a nitwit, looks the rear of the thing was floating so wheels spinning and no drive to front. Had it bitten then then we might have seen a very different video.

Hmm. He either bought a 4x2 "4x4 lookalike" in which case he is a prat, or he didn't know how to engage 4x4 on the one he had, in which case he is an even bigger prat

Did anybody spot part 2?



Jeez

Also spot the incredible ease with which the vehicle in the background of the first video drove out with no drama at all.... a Fiat Panda would be more use for recovering a jetski than "muh Full Size Truck with Dork fitted"

People like that should not be allowed to drive - all he had to do was get some of his mates to climb on the back - they are just as stupid!!!

If the Seadoo had 'popped' up over the tool box, the kid could have been pretty badly hurt.
