Good onya for telling them .. What i didn't understand at the end when he accepted your info he jumped on and fell out again...

Very disappointing that yaks are bought without pfd's though how would the store police it, if told they already have one..

Very sad.... Hope they don't go out at night... Probably wouldn't come back.. Or roll one of us trying to help them..

not a laughing matter at all, how ever I had a chuckle at that bone head falling out in 1 foot of water after he was told by Darren to get a PFD and Paddle Leash.
I cant believe he would even consider going out without a PFD, as he dosent look like the athletic type.
I vote him for this years darwin award...what a clown.

Thanks for taking the time to video and post this Rhino, this needs to be seen, I also think you showe remarkable "restraint" in your words when speaking to the spatchcocks :lol:
People laugh at me because I'm different, I laugh at them because they're all the same.
