I want 1!

My next idea to get a run in the next couple of months, dunno if anyone else has seen it done, but you get a front wheel drive car, jack the front wheels up on blocks on the dam bank at 1 end, take a tyre off 1 side rim, notch the rim so you can slot the knotted end of a rope in, wind out a good 2 or 300m of rope, then someone starts at the other end of the dam on a knee boarb and basically you put the car in gear and drive, winding the rope up on the rim, and pretyt much being able to waterski down the dam. Cant wait!

Well i heard it was fake, I saw it a few weeks back now.

Heard it was fake because it seems to just end- it has minutes of nothing, then as soon as the good bit happens it just stops.

That'd be awesome fun... imagine how fast you'd be able to kneeboard down the dam, straight into the front of the car!
