    Obviously fake. You can tell there is a platform a few inches below the water that they are running on.

    LOL, serious trolling going on there. Notice in the video they consistantly take the same path and always fall into the water in the same place.

    Yeah, but unfortunately I'm sure there are some retards that will try to run into a lake full bore only to sink like a stone. And the really sad part is I bet they will do it more than once before they realize they've been made fools of.....

    In order to use surface tension to keep us afloat (like certain insects in nature) instead of buoyancy, we'd need like a superfine, ultralight mesh material that is probably at least the surface area of a tennis court, likely that of a football field or two, in order to keep like a small baby afloat. It'd be cool if something like that was made, just to say it was done.


    Here's a picture of a paperclip (weighs approximately 1 gram) suspending itself on top of plain water (the glass is blue, so it doesn't look like regular water, but it is) by the force of surface tension:

    just listen to what they are saying, and doing. it's off of a comedy show. watch it like it was an SNL skit, you can see they are joking. especially when the guy talks about changing the way you think! by running 3 steps and face planting into water!

    jet ski system is just taking the idea from big wave riders. it's a total farce.

    if you fall down try again. this sport allows you to push your horizons further!!!! hahahahahahaha.

    It's possible if you can run fast enough. The problem is most people can't run 35 miles per hour.
