Dude nailed the recovery, no ladder needed.

He only turned back since his underwear was full...

Man is Nucking Futs!! He beat the impossible odds in so many ways. Go home. Dry off. Buy some Lottery tickets. Stay home.

I believe he did, you can see it in the water.

I couldn't zoom in but it looked like it was still on his head. My bad

I guess when he grabbed the rope, it just swung him in over the gunnel? It was very low in the water. Hope he learned a lesson.

No life jacket,no kill switch and no brains.

But Lady Luck was with him.

[getfished]

Obviously not a bull rider. No sea legs...................... and now a wet brain.

I know two people who was thrown from a boat many years ago. The lucky one had a 100+ stiches and the unlucky one had to have 4 fingers re-attached. I was not one of them but since that day I have always worn my kill switch and life jacket. I wear my inflatable the entire time on on my boat. To remember the kill switch I have a key ring on my ignition key that I hook the kill switch too when to motor is not running. Anytime I grab the key I am reminded to hook up my lanyard.

I thought the guy was a goner but he somehow climbed in when the camera angle could not see him. He's lucky to be alive. Had the boat not got him the waves probably would have.
