  • Over a Barrel

    The deafening roar of Horseshoe Falls is what draws so many people to this natural wonder each year.  I would like to say that is why I am here, but as they put the padding in a wooden barrel that will carry me over the 167-foot drop is what happens when you let your mouth overload your courage. Wearing my full body wetsuit, there are gawkers all around me who are watching in awe, wondering what is going to happen next.  It should be obvious.  Stupid man enters barrel, lid is fastened, followed by barrel bobbing over the precipice bringing stupid man to certain death.  There are fifteen who s...YAJone door
