I'm sure most of you have already seen this or one like it but for those that havent this is blowout.

Good camera action. Looks like something broke in the steering. Hope he's OK.

Yea, I look at it one time and it looks like the steering broke and turned first but another look and it seems like the stern lifted first. Lost bite, stern lifted, bow droped, and thats all folks.
Either way I'm glad I'm getting a new coned lower.
What the hell's wrong with that guy, he should have on a personal flotation device and a tether line,,, he is very lucky...
That's wild!
Don't know where in the hell the guy got "He flips at least 5 times before I drop the camera". That was definitely 1.5 flips.

Hard to tell.. Stern clearnly lifts in my opinion then shortly after the motor turns... Either way I would say thats an Extreme case of blow out..
Glad to see he was fine.. Life vest and kill switch at all time guys..
Stay safe on the H20
This was posted in the lounge a few days ago. I think they said he or someone there commented on the video and said his steering cable broke. Either way scarey for sure and he is a dumbass for not having a life jacket on
a 2 towel and roll of TP clean up job for sure. I'm gonna get me a helmet for anything over 70 I think
It was posted on scream and fly a week or so ago. Couple of those guys knew that guy I guess and they said the tiller arm broke.
Mechanical failure like that is freaky, nothing you can do. I always worry about the tillar arm bolt, all that power and only connected by 1 bolt
It looked to me that the steering broke , because nothing happened until the motor whipped to the side its obvious the steering broke, you can see in the video the motor turn hard to the right...he's lucky he's alive... as before no pfd and not tether line ,,,,,, very, very lucky...
