Def a fun time! The hard part is getting past the rocks, so make sure you jump as far out as you can. The current at the bottom isnt too bad. Just make sure you grab onto some kind of root or vine. The stairs going back up to the top are a bitch though.
FYI that’s a real picture. Dude who graduated from a daredevil school in California tried to go over the falls on a jet ski in 1995. He had a parachute. It didn’t open. The Maid of the Mist recovered his dead body.
This guy’s body was never recovered when he tried it in 1990.
someone called into shredd and regan yesterday bitching about kids jumping off the Akron falls :lol: the topic of discussion was the kid who drowned in the reservoir lake
Swinging Bridge used to be fun when I skated. We’d go in and cool off. I tried a 360 off the top perch you climb on in the middle…didn’t go so well. LOL.
Wind took me and/or I over rotated my arm and I ended up doing a faceplant/bellyflop and getting the wind knocked out of me. Was funny though. I miss being invincible.

I have jumped the top of the solid green part as a early teen…again when I was invincible. The funny part was we skated there from where I lived (NT) which was a hell of a skate. Jumped and swam for a bit and then were exhausted. Can’t believe we even made it back before sundown. HA
kinzua lake… “the fridge” this isn’t me in the vid, but i’ve jumped it before…it’s pretty fun and it’s a nice jump because it’s like 20 feet deep right there so it’s easy to get the balls to jump it. I wouldn’t say it’s anything crazy though, more of a beginner jump
