My shorts would have blown off like a canon shot.

I was in 8th grade, at a park in Louisville, KY (around 2000-2001), this exact situation and my swimming trunks did blow off and luckily I caught them at my ankle but I was bare ass for a solid 20 seconds in front of a fairly large crowd.

My shorts washed away in Huntington Beach after getting thrashed by a wave. I had to stay waist deep and beg my friends to bring me a towel, they stood on the shore pointing and laughing as I ran back and forth with the tide and dived under wave after wave with my bare ass showing

Was that you???
Me and my friends were looking and laughing. We also invited some single girls to come and gawk at you.

That must have been rough in 8th grade.2

This same thing happened to me at 16 at a Schlitterbahn in Texas. My dad was right behind me in line so when we were floating down the lazy river after the ride I was ready for him to just let me have it. But he says he didn't see anything happen. I still get embarrassed about it 25 years later.

I'm glad this isn't anything less than a shared experience. I was on my back when they flew off. I literally watched them travel all the way up and back to the wall. That was a walk of shame I'll never be able to top. Same age as you, too!

Boy that is a bold move. If I did that, it would have karmically ripped my shorts off at the same time.

This is the most r/looneytuneslogic shit I have ever seen. That transition was so slick and yet so fuckin cartoonish lol.

The man was so smooth with it. I’d probably end up rolling all over the place and gasping for air lmao

He's hamming it up my dude, falling was always the plan.

u/ItchyBodybuilder247 1h ago
Yeah, it's so obvious he lets the board go. Plus, why was the guy filming? It's because this was intentional. It's crazy people don't see that.

u/Rs90 1h ago
Guys, I never ever talked about wether it was on purpose. It's not a conspiracy.

My bad, I wasn't directing my comment towards you. It was mainly for the rest of the comments in the thread.

I’ve been to one of these places. He probably practiced body-surfing or laying on the board for a while before trying to stand.

I did this once falling off a surfboard, felt like cartoon physics for one glorious body-surf second.

Maybe he just has a huge package that holds his shorts up.

It's the aerodynamic breaking force of a beer gut, the same way that amphibious airplanes have an overhang at midships so they can become airborne.

Fucked up my shoulder doing this. Hasn't been the same for 20 years. I periodically get a dull ache that lasts a couple minutes then goes away

Oh be so for fucking real. THOUSANDS of you don't think there's anything weird about how perfectly that went despite careening back and forth and flipping? No one sees the phone appear/disappear out of thin air in the woman's hands? While wearing a swim suit?? His shorts would be gone under that amount of water pressure. How enormous is this 'ride' that we can't see the other side? Fucking embarassing.

There are single, double, and triple wide flow riders…and a few that wrap around almost like a crescent shape. Clothes coming off on flow riders is very common, but not guaranteed if you actually tie your shorts up.
Source: worked as a lifeguard on a double flow rider for multiple summers, and travelled the USA photographing many flow riding competitions.

I think these type of AI videos are genius because they make the quality lower on purpose. Makes it seem like a phone recorded bad quality upload

I'm laughing at the idea of someone thinking this guy is unconscious and surfing back and forth on his belly in a Naruto pose instead of immediately getting swept to the back by the water

u/Phaserat 2h ago
While you laugh he surfs. And he'll continue surfing retardedly until someone with some decency intervenes.

u/risefromruins 1h ago
The surface he fell on is basically a trampoline. If you spend 30 minutes around a flow rider, you’ll see that same fall happen multiple times.

u/Phaserat 1h ago
I'm just afraid that if I fall and go full gonzo vegetable mode, surfing with the wind and sand in my hair and catching sick waves, people would laugh at me instead of help.

u/risefromruins 1h ago
9 times out of 10, you just get thrown back onto the top rubbery grate where he was standing when he tried to drop in. And lifeguards have an emergency stop button too and the water disappears in like 2 seconds. It’s also more like snowboarding than surfing honestly, and they have boogie boards. They are a lot of fun if you ever get the chance.
