Ouch! How did that happen? I really couldn't believe it, except my friends were there and witnessed the whole thing, geez, I would've sworn upside down that the idea was preposterous, but it happened, makes you wonder. Where was the safety? Somone out there has a broken femur for there trouble. Sounds way sketchy and considering the reputable company involved it makes you wonder, when are people commercially guiding rivers that tourists have no business on. It has been a rough spring on the east coast for rafters this year.
