I forwarded that on to friends that let their little ones go off the top of Copper.
She is damn lucky she floated as most of them sink to the bottom right off the bat don't they?

Well, we took advantage of the situation and had our way with her before she regained consciousness. :sqeyes:

Neighbor across the street lost her son to cliff jumping at Powell.. He jumped and his buddy jumped afterwards, landing on him. Pretty lousy deal.
Laws at powell now forbid jumping from any height above like 15 ft...

Back in the late 80's at Bass Lake we watched some pot head take a head first dive into the rocks from about 30' up at the falls sandbar. We loaded him into our boat and took him to the marina, no cell phones to call for help back then. His collar bone was sticking out about 2" and his ear was torn off and a couple of broken limbs. Not to mention blood out of his mouth, nose and ears. His piece of shit buddies ballied when the saw him hit bottom.
This last summer we were in Willow Cove at Bass Lake and some kids were getting ready to go off another rope swing that wasn't safe due to the low water level. I told them this story and added, if you eat shit into those rocks you're on your own, I'm not getting your blood all over my boat. They decided not to take their chances.

That 15ft limit I actually think is closer to 5 or 10 ft and applies to all of Utah.

Yeah. That is actually overlooking inspiration point. You get two choices. Put out, or swim. :eek:

This was a pretty ugly incident, happened over 4th of July weekend......
Father, Son Found Dead In Lake
POSTED: 5:34 pm CDT July 9, 2007
UPDATED: 10:18 am CDT July 10, 2007
FORT WORTH -- The bodies of a Plano man and his son were recovered from Lake Texoma last weekend.
A Texas Parks and Wildlife Department official said that the body of Donald Woolf, 46, was found on Sunday and the body of his son William Woolf, 17, was found the previous day.
Woolf had told a relative that he and his son were planning to dive off a cliff and swim near Pottsboro in Grayson County on Saturday. Emergency crews began looking for the Woolfs after their family contacted them that evening.
Officials said they think the two jumped off the bluffs, which are 60 feet above the water level.
“The water is up 21 feet,” Army Corps of Engineers’ Dwain McBee said. “If it had been at its normal level, they probably wouldn't think about jumping.
No cause of death was available, but officials said the think William Woolf likely hit his head while jumping. An official cause of death will be available after autopsy results are determined in six weeks.
