Just kidding. I have no problem with what this gentleman is doing, other than he should be wearing his life jacket. I have been kayaking for years and have never tipped over. Kayaks are very stable. Not saying he couldn't have a heart attack and die, but that could also happen on dry land. If he is enjoying what he is doing why should others object? People do the polar plunge and don't die instantly. I would think if something happened he would have at least a minute to climb back onto the kayak.

If this guy fell off his kayak he would almost certainly die. It is plan and simple. You simply don't understand what hypothermia does to a person and this lack of understanding is what kills so many.
