    IMO stupid, but at least there was someone in the boat recording this as a safety valve.......

    I had heard rumors about this vid. We all knew it would pop up sooner or later - like the morons who set their cruise control then jump out and ride on the hood of their car. I actually saw that just recently on 1,000 ways to die. You can guess what the end result was.
    So when is this "old enough to know better" supposed to kick in?

    At least someone was in the boat. I saw a video on an x80 that claims noone was in the boat. Tough to believe though.

    I know this looks idiotic. But from the looks of it, they were on a good size lake with no one around, and there's a guy in the bow shooting the vid in case the surfer fell off the wave. So really, no one was in danger and it was pretty cool to watch! The thing I don't understand is how he kep the steering wheel from turning by itself. Now if someone were to do this with no one in the boat, now THAT would be completely idiotic. Unless of course he had an extended lanyard to the kill switch )

    Pretty cool, if you watch the white wash from the prop you can see the boat is turning to the left as its cruising.

    Not the most idiotic thing on the web by a long shot.
    pretty cool and you can see from the horizon that the boat is going in a large circle.
    the guy taking video could have jumped in the driver's seat at any time!
