The way moby went down made me think he was already unconscious. Perhaps concussed from whiplash because his arms are at his side.

Whole thing on Timbo/Moby is strange.  He completely dead sailors to his left.  Must have knocked his head to the right before going down.

Nope, he was the only one not braced.  If you watch the blonde on the right, she nearly injured her neck on the edge, and the two guys behind her slam their heads into the side.   Moby had nothing slowing him down.

 Asshole cigarette boat captains think that their boats only have two speeds, idle and WOT. Every fucking weekend, asshole cigarette boats on Lake Travis run WOT from dam to dam. Never understood the allure of having a 30 ft boat which only holds 8 people and burning $100 in fuel on one run.

Still remember the crash that killed the two freshman girls back in the 90’s.

Do you even "pathetic middle aged guys trying to impress younger women with fake boobs," bro?

Maybe the guy in the back was reloading the ice chest with beer because Moby had been tearing through it?

He did seem to have a knack for driving pretty shitty, and he seemed unsure quite a few times about what he was doing.

And let's face it, he was the most relaxed person on that boat when shit literally went sideways.

I prefer older women.  With real boobs.  But I am a man of taste, class, and style.

Whoa.... Whoa whoa... Slow your damn roll there cowboy. If trying to impress younger women with fakes boobs as a middle aged guy is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

Why not both?

There's got to be a joke in there somewhere, we need to get Surly's best minds on it.

It capsized because they all ran to one side of the boat to look for noods on the bank.

Here’s the story of the Gaytanic.   It wasn’t all lawyers either, I was mistaken.

I'm also baffled by what he was doing with the throttles toward the end there.

Did a little rooting around.  Timbo is actually Marvin.  Marvin Carter III of Memphis.  He was cited for this. https://fox2now.com/news/police-hope-people-learn-lesson-from-ozark-boat-crash-viral-video/

Yellow and Pink are Wanda and April Hunsucker, a mother-daughter team. https://www.wmcactionnews5.com/story/19506039/memphians-boating-accident-goes-viral-online/

One of the dudes in the back had several broken bones.

Yeah....this.  Whiskey on the way from the car to the gate, wax cup beer once you're inside, and all that by 9:00 a.m......can lead to an interesting day.

Knew a guy In college that got so drunk before the Texas OU game that not only did he miss the game, he got engaged.

Went to the wedding and believe it or not, the marriage lasted a whole six months.
