WARNING: DO NOT WALK ON THAT ICE!! IT WAS VERY COLD THE WEEK BEFORE WE DID THIS AND THAT DAY THE ICE WAS 3 ICHES THICK IN THE CHANNEL. IT WAS SEMI SAFE BUT 99.9% OF THE TIME IT IS NOT!! AS A MATTER OF FACT THE NEXT DAY AFTER THIS VIDEO WAS TAKEN THAT ICE WAS NOT SAFE AT ALL DUE TO A BIG TEMPERATURE INCREASE. DO NOT WALK ON THAT ICE!! THERE IS 250 FEET OF WATER IN THAT CHANNEL AND A 15+ MPH CURRENT. DO NOT GO OUT ON THAT ICE!!

I wasn't trying to be negative i have walked on thin ice before many winters ago it was very nerve raking and awsome at the same time so you don't have to be so nastey about it

Everything about that video was intended to be nerve racking. It was edited to get a rise out of people. The one guy below is correct. We did have a lot of safety gear that we didn't show in the video. We also drove that ice boat on every single spot we walked on at 2mph. We checked the ice thickness with spuds everywhere we walked.. blah blah blah blah blah... I wasn't going to tell anyone that but since certain people are having kittens over this I guess the cat is out the bag. So for all future majorly negative comments I suggest you save your effort. They will be removed. This is my frigin website and if you don't like what you see here don't look at it.

Nice video guys but I saw you out there. You we're using large flotation tubes, ropes, long sticks, and ice picks, but the video doesn't show any of that does it?

That wasn't as bad as I thought it might turn out. You shouldve gone sliding on your chest or something.
