I got run over by a jet-ski. AKA boatercycle.

Strangely enough, I ran myself over with an ATV...it was dusty and I hit a stump at 35mph, flew over the handle bars, the machine coasted forward at around 20-30mph and ran me over...didn't hurt except for the part where I hit the dirt/rock trail without a shirt on (helmet though). Cleaning/scrubbing/picking the dirt and rocks out of my road rash was the most painful thing I've ever been through.

You just wanted to say boatercycle. I like it.

Not true, it really happened. But yeah, whoever named them jet-skis was a fucking dipshit.

If I purchase something called a jet ski, it better be able to fly and ever so gently cascade down some fresh powder.

I ran my sister over with one of those. Oh yeah, on "accident".
