  • 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.

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

  • i bet "Kevin" wasnt found anywhere near the beach when Irene passed, lol, i heard he bought a velcrow suit and stayed on the couch.

  • Get's funnier every time I watch!

  • @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.

  • @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

  • @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.

  • @hayashiburger Why would you say something like that? This guy could have been killed during this!

  • man.dat was totally wild!!!! merciless wind!!

  • man....dat was totally wild!!!!!

  • Jesus (not that he helped)
