nice viedo, but it only works in internet explorer it seems. if you use firefox, you may want to right click on the link and then 'save as...' before watching it:

He broke his paddle across his face. Not suprising when you consider the nice high braces above head height. Prett dodgy. Good runs though in any case. More balls than me. Congrats gentlemen. :grin:

Balls'y run that. You wouldn't find me high bracing on that one , to be more accurate you wouldn't find me running it in the first place :lol:
Can't speak german but could someone explain what they were running from at the end :think:

It's not allowed to paddle the falls, so I guess they were running from the cops or they just want to get away as soon as possible!

Well, bernie knows what he's doing.. :roflol:
It's illegal to run the falls and you can hear a siren when they start running, the coppers were on their tail. He did a high brace as 'last rescue', rather brace and hurt your nose then slide that baby upside down! ;)

You are right, the police was following them by a motor boat. The owner of the crusing and sightseeing company was calling the police, after he has seen the two paddlers coming down the waterfall :anger:

Bernie broke his nose with the paddle, when he made the last part of the fall.

It seems, that the most dangerous part of paddling the Rhinefall is the owner of the boat comany:puke:
