Recovering from fall.jpg

This is what happens when a man doesn't know his limitations! This guy cartwheeled off a rock ledge into the river below a waterfall. He went in head first and was lucky he wasn't seriously injured. The water was only three feet deep and he hit his head pretty good and was bleeding when I helped him out. He was trying to reach the top of the rock outcrop then have his photo taken. He did get his photo taken by me!! Just not how he planned it.

Thank goodness you weren't on the banks of the Rio Frio when I went down it on a rubber tube!!!
