I got a ticket for doing that about 6 years ago. Rarely go up there anymore. This is still our favorite spot to swim.

Awesome video. How many times have you been caught by the police there? Or have you...

@Briberry12 I don't jump - it says not to ;) I meerely fime others risking an encounter with law enforcement.

Any of you out there old enough to remember a movie from 1972 called "THE GETAWAY"? It stared Steve McQueen and Allie McGraw. Steve jumped into the water right in front of that waterfall.

that looks like fun but dangerous. haha i live so close to there and i see people do that all the time.

many a people have died doing that

[gmacdaddy]

@bencr06 - Yes, people have died, but it's when the river is full. When this video was shot, the river was at an all-time low of 86 pcfs. You would have to be nuts to try that now (river currently at 206 cfs).
