| Everyone here at Steep Creeks wants to thank you for your feed back on Jimmy Turners run
on Little Falling Water Falls. Most of this was copied from the notes on Boater Talk -"i just saw that video and am curious. it initially looks like a dummy, but on further review, the dummy took some strokes off the lip. i've looked over the edge of that cliff many times and have a hard time believing that the guy was not killed landing in the rock strewn kiddie pool at the bottom of that thing. it also seems like a pretty long walk out from the landing, which makes it seem like a pretty bad place to undertake a stunt that is 99% likely to result in the need for hospitalization. all in all, it just seems like such an amazingly bad idea that i have a hard time believing it was not a dummy, but like i said, it looked animated. can anyone satisfy my curiosity? thanks." - "He is a Chatttanooga legend; He has many first decents besides his record on Little Falling water, such as Glen falls, Daniel's creek, and Robert's Mill gap. The Doctor said 6 months out of boating but Jimmy said forget that" - "So, not to be rude, but is he suicidal ? or just a favored nominee for a Darwin Award? " - "that makes a lot more sense. it's a good dummy though. i guess the air rushing by makes the blades move." |
-"That is the ugliest and stupidest waterfall run I've ever seen!" -"Boof" a 160 ft waterfall? I think he needs to double-check his calculations. -"Big Waterfall, 10 CFS true, But Jimmy did his math before hucking" -"Is the guy still alive? If so, what was the damage?" -"He's alive & well. A local Chattanooga legend." -"is that $h!t for real? 160ft? hard to believe the dude is still alive." -"Lesson learned: When your buddy says it's no good and it won't go.... don't run it. And if you are crazy enough to run a 160 ft waterfall, I would think you would want more than 10 cfs landing on rock :)" -"JIMmy, JIMmy, JIMmy, JIMmy, JIMmy...." -"Chattanooga's own, that guy should have his picture on the wall @ the Stone Lion" -"reminded me of the taliban olympics video i have" -"this can't be for real. this is a joke right? no one in there right mind would run such a drop." -"I just watched a steep creeks.com video of a guy going off a 160 foot water fall. Is that real,if not what the heck... was he thinking" -"Great Clip, Almost made it" - "R.I.P Jimmy T...." |
- "Yea....... they should say world record waterfall > 10cfs" - "who holds the current waterfall record..." -"I think Jimmy Turner has it, @ 160'." -"If you want to try Angel Falls, I'll hold your beer." -"did jimmy turner stay in his boat?" -"That stuff on Steepcreeks was just nutty." -"Let me be the first to say.. Congrats to Turner! Heh heh. Live it UP." - "I guess if we want to get picky, and say it only counts if you stay in your boat then tao still has it in my book." -"it's pretty stupid if you ask me." -"Has Jimmy Turner gotten out of the wheelchair?" -" Jimmy's a martyr! ALL HAIL JIMMY" -"i saw your video and that's what it looks like. how high is that and how badly was that guy hurt?" -"only a matter of time ...B-4 some moe-ron takes it seriously and attempts to out-do it in their own boat, much to the delight of the coroner. Just hope it aint me or any o my friends or you guys either." -"Sick!!!" -"I want Jimmy to have my babies." -"i saw jimmy t scoping out a lighthouse in southern fl that sits right on the water..." |
