To Backflip. Or Not.

I was trying to help a fellow producer find some of Charlotte's most viral videos the other day, when I remembered one of my favorites from the U.S. National Whitewater Center. It's of former USNWC guide Mark Cain showing off.

The first video shows success:


The second shows utter failure:

The sad thing is because the bottom pond at the center is so full of water right now, the class-III rapid he's using to launch himself into the air (Biscuits & Gravy) isn't actually there any more. It's more of a wave train now.

Oh yeah. Mark was fine.
