Massachusetts Man killed in a snowmobile accident

[fisher16]

A Massachusetts man was killed in a snowmobiling accident by attempting to skim across a open stretch of water. His snowmobile didn'make it to the other side of the ice. A resident at the lake had his video camera and captured the snowmobiler attempting to skim approximately three hundred feet of open water. But when the resident saw that the snowmobiler was in trouble he ran down to his dock to help. Here's the vidoe link: If it offends anyone I don't have a problem removing it,

But if your trying to skim across 100 yards of open water then you are tempting fate. The are called "snow"mobiles not "ski"mobiles. I wonder if alcohol was involved and he was feeling 10' tall and bullet proof?

At least he is out of the gene pool!:)

Unfortunately I am the type of person that believes in personal responsibility. When idiots, do stupid things, or pull stupid stunts, especially when they are illegal (and "skimming" is illegal in NH) I find it very difficult to feel sorry for what happens to they.

If you want to dance you have to pay the piper.:D
