When his freight fell off the wake board the rope came back to the boat and the handle hit him on the hand.

Should have been in full-body bubble wrap if he wanted to study the playbook on a boat.

Total lack of commitment!

Not to question the validity or anything. But has got to be the freakiest injury. What’s the chances that anyone could break their hand watching someone else wakeboard or water ski. I know when you fall the roap snaps back towards the boat, but the chances that it hits your hand, not your arm, or head, or body, or legs. Much less the engine or back of the boat. And the cushioned grip to hit it that hard to cause any fracture is pretty rare.

As far as him having fun in the summer I could care less. He’s 19? 20? Hell; hunt, fish, ski/ board, hike, ride 4 wheelers, do keg stands, go to the beach, chase tail.... be a teenager all you want I really don’t care. Saw a video of JF1 lighting fireworks with a propane torch, with Swift... God bless and celebrate you only live once. Your kings of the castle for only a short time. All I ask is don’t fail your classes, don’t get a dui or underage, or smoke weed ( cause I just don’t think you should). Don’t do anything to get you on the news at 11pm or 7am.

But the injury is absolutely rare, like I’ve never even heard of someone breaking their hand that way. And I’m sure that’s what happened, no reason not to believe him. But if it was anything else; that’s a stupid story to make up. So I’m sure it is what is.
