Watch: Hero in kayak rescues man clinging to rock in river rapids

Second that it’s a bit overhyped. All the people in adventurous pursuits help each other out all the time. There’s hardly a run like that (looks like Class V, far beyond my skill level back when I did that sort of thing, but I couldn’t read the water from the video) that someone doesn’t need a helping hand at some point. You have got to have each other’s backs, because Mother Nature is a bitch. Wow, that run looks as if it would be fun, if I had been better at kayaking!

Really nice job of beaching and getting ashore quickly in challenging water. Shows the world how it’s done.
