[mavropiperi]

three mistakes in a row:

1. kitesurfing in a storm

2. not letting the bar go free

3. unable to find quick release before hell breaks

[okboy100]

harness = no let go lol

[FrankieBEAST000]

Technecaly he's in a harness.

[MrMALDiiTO]

This guy's are crazy flying during a storm they are looking for trouble...

[goldenthoth]

moron!

[Marvcohen]

In the words of my great great great grandfather.......... OUCH !!!!

[ggNATAKUgg]

yeah seriously this is why we are going to be banned. just quick release. its all ya gotta do.

[Henry4189]

Kite surfing during a tropical storm=FACEPALM

[heyalain]

he can't just let go... he's strapped in

[sirnubzor]

kite surfing in a storm. WTF. Kite isn't worth the skin he lost on the parking lot. Let it go

[frenchfriedverzuh]

god dang why didnt he just let go?

[ZuercherNo1]

ahaha

[BuLLReD86]

a kien se le ocurre

[KrissyBlendz]

here was his first mistake, thinking of kite surfing during the storm.

[freethedj]

did he get to live?

[zeturion]

learn to use the QUICK RELEASE or our Sport will be banned from the beach

[paulski5]

@zeturion Fuckin rights.

[liverpoolwtf]

rofl i was surfing during this storm i herd about this on the news

[jonasinclz]

why he hasn´t let go the kite?

poor boy, is he dead?

[cairnsguy22]

Nah, he survived.... not so sure he should have been allowed to though, bastards always polluting the gene pool.

[pudodrewculous]

i feel for this guy, but dude, in that kind of weather just stay home... nothing good is gonna come from it... I've ate it hard on a kite, but this is pretty damn brutal... good to know hes still kickin tho!

[brandonmath]

my teacher showed this in class 2day, u shudve seen the reporters on good morning america they cudnt even keep a straight face

[ktalley45615612]

some of you guys are pretty evil. Obviously he would have used his quick release if he didnt get tangled and had the time. I know Kevin personally and we were all very scared for his life. They were coming in from a full day of kite surfing and taking off their rigs when they saw the squall coming in.

The internet, while anonymous, doesnt give you a license to be an insensitive prick.

[paulski5]

@ktalley45615612 Evil? C'mon. Uninformed, maybe.

[Steveman27]

@ktalley45615612 after seeing this video, i found it really disturbing that there were a lot of thumbs up and how there wasn't an written update on what happened. was he OK? did he fully recover? if men or women posted like that on the internet i wanna know if they were OK afterwards.

[ktalley45615612]

@Steveman27 Kevin is doing well -- he fully recovered and still enjoys Kite Surfing. You can see his GMA interview from after his hospital release here: abcnews.go.com/video/playerInd­ex?id=5647401

[Steveman27]

@ktalley45615612 thanks for the link. btw, did you see the sprite commercial on youtube where the kite surfer gets dragged by an airliner? i wonder if that was real and what ever happened to that guy. i think it might've been real because number 1, he suddenly took off EXTREMELY FAST and number, the camera then showed something on its wing. please check out that video when you get the chance.

[vladimir2277]

quick release?

[blewsrose]

Fucking 'tard.

[mbrstooge]

Saw this on "World's Dumbest Daredevils 4" on truTV. It could be funny or serious depending on how you look at it. Then again, it's SERIOUSLY FUNNY!

This is why I don't kite-surf during a tropical storm or hurricane.

[spypuazrave]

jajajaja lol this video like me is funny but

I like kitre surf

I buy equipement for practis this I hope not have a same accident

este pendejo lo ke le paso jajaja me gusto el video

[hmghosthost]

I just saw this video on the Discovery channel. Hellacious! He slammed on to the ground so hard it knocked him out and the flung him right into a wall and and suffered broken bones and massive brain swelling, but he lived.

[grumpyhaus]

I said where'd he go and I heard over the coms Whered whoooooo gooooooo

[submelon8]

wow you guys are evil. That guy was hurtin bad.

[imcmosher]

hahaha.

i hate kite surfers.

[drummertothemax]

FUck off.

[imcmosher]

haha. u fuckin douche bag kite surfer.

sucked in i hope that bloke is dead. ha

[jctothemaxx9]

well think about he easly could have been caught in it or something. and it happened really fast so quick realease wouldnt help much . plus maybe he was like in shock or something and just held on

[padbrit]

200 years of Darwin. Will they never learn

[bms6988]

He should of drank some RED BULL.

[Rebdominator]

the idiot had it coming.

[pclarky]

what do you expect kiting in a fricken hurricane? The problem with all the companies

with all there safety systems, is stuff like this happens in milli seconds, Quick release is bullshit if you go out in dodgey conditions.

[smrgilo]

I disagree: you just have to learn using the quick release blind! Then no doubt will overcome you to use the qr sooner than u think about!

No kite company can take repsonsability for lunatic riders, who never train the quick release!!

[pclarky]

fair comment, he did have enough time to release, when he got lifted, still only a few seconds but yeah he could of bailed, but after he hit the ground it was game over. Shouldn't of been out in first place.

[ionyah]

wow thats gotta hurt!

[PRESTON58CENT]

i live in flordia near where fay hit once

[Hiper4o]

that happens when u don't know where the small red ball is :)

[smrgilo]

Exactly! ALWAYS use the safety!! In sch a situation - it's better to open the safety sooner than you want to!!

Really, some paople will never ever learn, that this can cost your life!

He also didn't wear any protection. WTF : WHY NOT! in such strong conditions.-- it IS lunatic and stupid.

[ronsig]

He is out of the hospital. I heard an interview with him! He wants to go kite surfing again... but not during a hurricane, lol.

[davidgoble]

LET GO OF THE ROPE!! lol

[croakerlips]

good way to end your walking career.

[taylor410ce]

what a dumb ass i hope he died.

[magnoliaboy01]

I'm from J-ville...I remember seeing this on the news
